How to Make Avocado White Bean Hummus

1. Drain one (15-ounce) can of white beans, reserving about 2 tablespoons of the liquid.
2. Combine the drained white beans, 1 ripe avocado, ¼ cup tahini, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 clove garlic (minced), ½ teaspoon ground cumin, ¼ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper in a food processor or blender.
3. Blend until completely smooth and creamy, adding reserved white bean liquid, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency.
4. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more lemon juice for extra tang or salt and pepper to taste.
5. Serve immediately with warm pita bread, vegetable sticks, or tortilla chips. For a unique twist, try it as a sauce over pasta with grilled chicken or fish. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
