Pizza Hummus


Traditional flavours of a margarita pizza: tomatoes, cheese (in the form of nutritional yeast) and herbs all mixed with chickpeas to make this pizza hummus. I didn't add any oil in this hummus version, instead using aquafaba (the liquid from the chickpeas). After it's been refrigerated for a few hours it is quite thick - perfect for spreading on rice cakes or toast - but it can be watered down further by adding a little more lemon juice or water during the blending process.
