I tried this Cauliflower Hummus recipe the other day and holy cow...I never expected it to be so good! Just thought I'd share. I'm a total sucker for chips and hummus and this will definitely be my new go to without all the fat! Yummo!
<edit> I guess my link got deleted.... so here's the recipe below:
Ingredients:
1, 16oz. bag of frozen cauliflower, steamed until tender (or you can use fresh if you prefer)
2 Tablespoons of Walden Farms Peanut Butter
2-6 cloves of garlic (to taste)
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes or Sriacha hot sauce (add more if you like it spicy!)
3 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon cumin (to taste)
Juice from half a lemon
Pinches of paprika and parsley to garnish
Directions:
Put all ingredients (except paprika and parsley), in a food processor and blend till desired consistency is reached. Taste the mixture and then add more garlic, salt or red pepper flakes to your liking. Garnish with paprika and parsley.
Serve with chips or this treat even goes great with cucumber. celery or red pepper slices if you're looking for a veggie alternative to chips!

ooh, interesting recipe! I should try this soon.
I'm also planning to try an avocado hummus recipe (credit to The Skinny Fork). Maybe I'll make both this weekend.
The recipe:
1 Can Chick Peas (Garbanzo Beans), Drained & Rinsed
1/2 C. Avocado
1/4 C. Fat Free Plain Greek Yogurt
4 Tbsp. Lemon Juice
4 Tbsp. Water
1-2 Cloves Garlic
1/2 Tsp. Salt
1/2 Tsp. Cumin
1/8 Tsp. Cayenne
