- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the 1 cup of hummus as the base for your dip.
- Next, measure out 1/2 cup of sunflower seeds and add them to the bowl with the hummus. These seeds will add a delightful crunch and nutty flavor to the dip.
- Chop the fresh parsley finely, ensuring there are no large pieces. Measure out 1/4 cup of the chopped parsley and add it to the bowl for a fresh, vibrant taste.
- Pour in 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to enhance the flavor and provide a refreshing acidity to balance the dip.
- Using a spatula or a wooden spoon, gently mix all the ingredients together until well combined. Ensure that the sunflower seeds and parsley are evenly distributed throughout the hummus.
- Once mixed, taste the dip and season with salt and pepper according to your preference. Start with a pinch of salt and a few cracks of black pepper, then adjust as needed.
- Transfer the dip to a serving bowl. You can garnish it with a few extra sunflower seeds or a sprinkle of parsley on top for presentation, if desired.
- Serve immediately with fresh vegetables, pita chips, or crackers. Enjoy your delicious Brenda's Seeds of Change Dip!
Tips
- Use high-quality, fresh ingredients - the better your hummus and sunflower seeds, the more incredible your dip will taste.
- Toast the sunflower seeds lightly before adding them for an extra nutty depth of flavor.
- For a zestier version, try adding a minced garlic clove or a dash of smoked paprika.
- Chop the parsley just before mixing to maintain its vibrant green color and fresh flavor.
- For a smoother consistency, you can pulse the sunflower seeds in a food processor before mixing.
- Chill the dip for 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together perfectly.
- Experiment with different garnishes like a drizzle of olive oil, za'atar, or red pepper flakes for added excitement.
