Spiced Sweet Potato Hummus

Ingredients:

  • 1 large sweet potato, cubed
  • 2 cups cooked chickpeas (or canned)
  • 4 Tbsp tahini
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • Juice from 1/2 a lemon
  • 1 Tbsp cumin
  • 1 Tbsp OMG! Turmeric Powder
  • 2 Tbsp OMG! Black Chia Seed
  • 1 tsp sriracha
  • dash of nutmeg
  • dash of cinnamon
  • Salt/Pepper to taste


Directions:

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Lower to medium low and add in the sweet potatoes. Cook until softened (about 10 to 15 minutes). Strain and let cool. In a large blender or with a food processor, blend all the ingredients (except chia seeds) together until a desired consistency is reached. Taste and add more olive oil if dry, more sriracha if not spicy enough for you, or more lemon juice to bring out the flavors more. Stir in back chia seeds.

Roasted Turmeric Butternut Squash

Ingredients:

  • 3 pounds butternut squash, peeled, seeded and cut into 1-inch cubes (8 cups)
  • 2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tsp Smoked Paprika
  • ¾ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp OMG! Turmeric Powder
  • ½ tsp. garlic powder


Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Toss squash cubes with oil, paprika, salt, turmeric and garlic powder in a large bowl to coat. Spread out on a large rimmed baking sheet. Roast, stirring once or twice, until the squash is tender, and starting to brown in spots, 32 to 37 minutes.

Chocolate Pudding Tart

Chocolate pudding
