Zucchini hummus

Houmous de courgette

J’adore les tartinades, houmous, caviar d’aubergine, caviar de champignons… il y en a très souvent au frigo chez nous.  Alors pour ne pas se lasser, il faut sans cesse trouver de nouvelles associations de légumes, de légumineuses, d’oléagineux

Aujourd’hui, je voulais le plus simplement du monde utiliser les courgettes jaunes et vertes du jardin pour nous faire une petite tartinade façon houmous. L’idée est simple et la recette quasi identique à l’originale, il suffit juste de remplacer les pois-chiches par des courgettes.

A vos tartines !
