Move over hummus, there’s a new plant-based spread in town.

White beans get pulsed in a food processor with sauteed onion, celery, green pepper, carrots, and garlic that have been seasoned with curry powder, cumin, and soy sauce.

The result is a chunky, hearty spread with layers of earthy spice and plenty of vegetable texture in every bite.

It’s naturally low-fat, high in fiber, and completely vegan. Pile it on sandwich bread, stuff it in a pita, or scoop it up with crackers.

Pro Tips

  • Pulse the beans and vegetables briefly in the food processor. You want a rough, spreadable texture with visible pieces, not a smooth paste.
  • The spread thickens as it chills. If it gets too thick after a few hours in the fridge, stir in a tablespoon of water to loosen it up.
  • Try this on toasted sourdough with sliced cucumber and a handful of sprouts for a seriously satisfying plant-based lunch.
