Description

Roasted broccoli and sun-dried tomato hummus are a perfect pair! These toasts make a great appetizer or meal. You could also turn these toasts into a sandwich if you prefer. If you’re in a hurry, feel free to use store-bought hummus (roasted garlic would be awesome) and toast your bread in the toaster. Hummus recipe yields about 2 cups hummus. Double the amount of broccoli if you’re feeding a crowd.

Ingredient:

  • 1 large bunch broccoli, sliced into bite-sized florets
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
  • 1 loaf of crusty whole grain bread, sliced
  • Olive oil, for brushing
  • Lemon wedges and red pepper flakes, for garnish
  • Sun-dried tomato hummus
  • ¼ cup tahini
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice (about 1 large lemon, juiced)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for serving
  • ¾ cup drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes (I used one 6.7-ounce jar, drained)
  • 1 large garlic clove, roughly chopped
  • ½ teaspoon salt, more to taste
  • ⅛ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • One (15-ounce) can of chickpeas, also called garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons water, optional
