Ingredients

• 2 cups cherry tomatoes
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cups cauliflower florets
• 3 tablespoons tahini
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 whole garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 tablespoon parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Spread the cherry tomatoes on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and toss to coat evenly. Roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the tomatoes are soft and slightly blistered.

Step 3

While the tomatoes are roasting, steam the cauliflower florets. Place them in a steaming basket over boiling water and steam for 8-10 minutes, or until tender. Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 4

In a blender or food processor, combine the roasted tomatoes, steamed cauliflower, tahini, lemon juice, garlic cloves, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil.

Step 5

Blend on high speed, gradually adding the 2 tablespoons of water, until the mixture reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. Add more water if needed, 1 teaspoon at a time, to achieve your desired texture.

Step 6

Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt or lemon juice if needed.

Step 7

Transfer the tomato hummus to a serving bowl and garnish with chopped parsley, if desired. Serve it with fresh vegetable sticks like cucumber, carrot, and bell pepper, or pair it with grilled chicken or fish for a satisfying Whole30-compliant snack or side dish.
