Description

Easy 6-ingredient creamy cauliflower dip that’s oil-free, legume-free, and perfect for pairing with your favorite veggie chips!


Ingredients

  • 1 head cauliflower (or sub one bag frozen cauliflower florets)
  • 1/4 cup runny tahini
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 lemon, squeezed (~2 TBSP lemon juice)
  • Himalayan sea salt
  • Black pepper
  • optional– serve with minced herbs like parsley or cilantro
  • optional– dash of cumin, paprika, cayenne, turmeric, curry powder, or your favorite spice!
  • optional– 1 TBSP of nutritional yeast for a “cheezy” flavor
  • 1 bag Bare Snacks Beet Chips

Instructions

  1. Wash and rinse the head of cauliflower and chop it into florets.
  2. Add the cauliflower to a steamer basket or boiling water and cook for 8-10 minutes, until it’s soft and fork tender.
  3. Drain the cooked cauliflower well and allow it to cool slightly, then transfer the florets to a blender with the tahini, garlic powder, and lemon juice and a pinch of Himalayan sea salt and black pepper.
  4. Blend everything until it’s smooth and creamy, then taste the mixture and add more lemon, garlic, salt and pepper to taste. At this time, you can add in 1/2 tsp of your favorite spice, too! I like to do a mix of cumin and paprika.
  5. Serve the cauliflower dip warm or chill in the fridge for 1-2 hours to allow the flavors to combine. Garnish the dip with fresh herbs and veggie chips or crackers! Store leftover cauliflower dip in the refrigerator for up to one week.
