SWEET POTATO HUMMUS

Sweet Potato Hummus

Winter weather can get the best of us! The chilly wind, never-ending clouds, and sudden rain create the perfect recipe for colds and flu. Thankfully, our boxes are filled with nutritious fruits and veggies to combat winter sickness! One of them is our humble sweet potato. Not many people know that sweet potatoes are packed with vitamins A, C, and B6, alongside other beneficial nutrients like manganese, copper, and potassium. Collectively, these elements act as a shield, helping to protect our bodies from diseases.
And since they’re already delicious on their own, it doesn’t take much to unlock their flavours. We love this Sweet Potato Hummus recipe by @singingkathleen.
It only takes 5-10 minutes of prep time, and you can find all the ingredients you need in our Farmers Pick Box and Farmers Pick Pantry—filled with all the pantry staples you need! So, you can stay warm at home and say goodbye to cold, windy walks to the supermarket!
