Keto Avocado Hummus

In this recipe, I actually made hummus keto friendly. I thought that when I became keto that I had to say goodbye to hummus, which was one of my favorites. However, I have been able to make this more keto friendly by adding in avocado, so it cuts down on the carbs for each serving and ups the fats. That is a win-win for anyone on the keto diet.

Who Knew?!

Sure a lot of people already know that hummus with avocado is a thing, but I have been keto for almost two years as I write this and I just found out. I discovered this at my day job (yes I have a day job, I would like to make this my full-time job, but for now I do work elsewhere) when a co-worker (Thanks Whitney 😁) was eating hummus with avocado for her lunch. I was like, “No way! What a great idea.” Then I got to work on making this a keto recipe. My recipe does not contain tahini, it just doesn’t need it. You will be blown away by how easy and delicious this recipe is.
