This tasty keto & paleo hummus combines some of the healthiest fats from avocado, macadamia nuts and extra virgin olive oil – all of these ketogenic foods are fantastic sources of heart-healthy monounsaturated fatty acids. Avocado and macadamias are also high in electrolytes, especially magnesium and potassium. You wouldn’t believe how well soaked macadamia nuts work in hummus instead of the traditionally used high-carb chickpeas!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted macadamia nuts (134 g/ 4.7 oz)
- 1 large avocado (200 g/ 7.1 oz)
- 2 cloves garlic, sliced
- 2 tbsp tahini paste (32 g/ 1.1 oz)
- 1/2 tsp sea salt, or to taste
- 3 tbsp fresh lime juice (45 ml)
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (30 ml)
- Optional: fresh cilantro, to taste
