Coconut Lime Hummus

Coconut Lime Hummus with Cucumber Slices ~ Or try it with graham crackers for a Key Lime pie-like treat!

As a wife and mom, I strive to feed my family healthy and nutritious foods so we can work and play to the best of our abilities. As I was feeding apple slices and peanut butter to my kids one summer afternoon, the wheels in my head started turning, and I  decided to try making a sweet hummus and came up with a yummy creation- Cinnamon Raisin Hummus! From that, several other flavors evolved and I began to sell them to family, friends, and friends of friends. Now my product is available at Downtown Produce in Melbourne as well as The Melbourne Beach Market.

Sweet Hummus Ideas:

• A dip for apple, pear, and peach slices
• Spread on bananas
• Jazz up the morning- spread on your whole grain waffle, toast, or english muffin
• Great on whole grain crackers or pretzels for an afternoon snack
• Turn it into a savory sauce over pork or turkey

These flavors are packed full of complex carbs, are high in protein, and have a good dose of healthy fats. This is a great way to satisfy your sweet tooth and keep you feeling full!

My Small Business

My oldest, Aleyah, recently asked me what I do with the money that I make from my hummus. I was happy to report that the money I earn from my sales goes towards paying for her and her sister’s ballet tuition. According to the 3/50 Project, for every $100 spent in locally-owned business, $68 returns to the community! The good news here is that 100% of my profits go back into my community as I pay Space Coast Ballet for lessons for my two ballerinas. I love selling my sweet hummus because it promotes whole and clean eating, it provides me with the means to allow my girls to dance, and I know that I am giving back to my community!
