This recipe for green curry hummus was originally shared with us by Heather Kessler as a “15 minutes or less” entry in the Fast & Fresh Dairy-Free Time Trials Recipe Contest that we hosted with So Delicious. But since it’s got such a beautiful green hue, I decided to give it a refresh in time for St. Patrick’s Day.
Heather uses a blend of Thai-inspired flavors, including inexpensive green curry paste, to strongly influence the flavor of this bean-based dip. In keeping with the theme, she swaps coconut for the tahini, making this a seed-free spread. It may not be traditional, but I think this green curry hummus still earned its name.

I make hummus with cooked chicken, garbanzo beans and whatever seasonings I feel like at the time. I usually eat it with gluten free pretzels so to get it to stick to the pretzel I add some dairy free cream cheese or some mayo. I can’t wait to try your hummus recipes. I am on a Gluten Free, Mammal Free, Nightshade Free diet that gets somewhat boring. Thanks for sharing your recipes!
Sounds interesting Kathy! Glad I can help inspire 🙂
