Best Taco Hummus And Tortilla Chips Recipes

TACO HUMMUS

Steps:

• Drain and rinse your chickpeas, then add to a medium saucepan with 1/2 tsp of baking soda. Pour in water until it's about an inch or two above the chickpeas, then set to boil on high for 20 minutes. Toss your garlic in after 10/15 minutes to soften.
• While the chickpeas boil away, make your pico. Dice the tomato and onion, then minced the jalapeño after removing the seeds and stem. For a spicy topping, add some of the seeds back in! Combine veggies with cilantro and salt, then set aside.
• Pour chickpeas and garlic into a fine mesh strainer and drain. You can pick off any skins that popped off the chickpeas if you'd like but it's totally optional!
• In a trusty food processor or high-powered blender, add chickpeas, lemon/lime juice, cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper, paprika, salt, and avocado/olive oil. Blend well.
• Scrape down the sides as needed and add tahini and ice water. Continue blending until hummus is delightfully smooth and creamy!
• Feel free to add any extra tahini, oil, or ice water as needed. Next, add any extra seasoning to taste (I always dive in with a tortilla chip or a carrot to taste test) and scrape into a bowl for serving.
• Top hummus with Pico de Gallo, as well as a drizzle of oil and sprinkle of paprika. Dive in with your favorite dippers!

TACO HUMMUS AND TORTILLA CHIPS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Spray cookie sheet with cooking spray.
• To make tortilla chips, lightly brush both sides of each tortilla with water. Lightly sprinkle taco seasoning mix over both sides of each tortilla. Cut each tortilla into 8 wedges; place on cookie sheet. Bake 4 to 5 minutes or until light golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, to make hummus, drain chickpeas, reserving liquid. In blender or food processor, place chickpeas, oil, lemon juice, garlic and remaining 1 tablespoon taco seasoning mix. Cover; blend until smooth. Add reserved chickpea liquid, 1 teaspoon at a time, until desired consistency.
• Garnish hummus with cilantro and queso fresco. Serve with tortilla chips.

BAKED TORTILLA CHIPS

• Combine the cumin, chili powder and salt in a small bowl and sprinkle on the chips.
• Bake for about 7 minutes. Rotate the pan and bake for another 8 minutes or until the chips are crisp, but not too brown. Serve with salsas, garnishes or guacamole.

LAYERED HUMMUS WITH SPICED TORTILLA CHIPS

Steps:

• In a food processor, whizz together all the ingredients for the hummus, adding about 50ml water to loosen the mixture to your desired consistency. Season, then chill for up to 24 hrs.
• In the small bowl of a food processor or with a stick blender, whizz together all the ingredients for the herby oil. This can also be chilled for up to 24 hrs.
• Just before you want to serve, heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 to make the tortilla chips. Mix together the oil, cumin and sumac, brush over one side of each tortilla and season. Cut each one into 8 triangles and arrange in a single layer on a baking tray (you may need to use 2 trays, or cook them in batches). Bake in the oven for 5-8 mins until crisp and lightly golden.
• Spread the hummus over a large serving plate, drizzle with the herby oil and scatter over the pomegranate seeds, pine nuts and feta. Serve with the homemade tortilla chips.
