Avocado Hummus Stuffed Tomatoes
Ingredients
- 4 4英寸（10厘米）宽西红柿
- 1 cup (280g) cooked no-salt chickpeas, drained
- 1中鳄梨
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- 3 tablespoons (45ml) fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (110g) shredded carrots
- Parsley sprigs, for garnish
Directions
Place a clean, folded kitchen towel on the counter. Use a paring knife to cut a circle in the top of each tomato, just inside the wall of the tomato flesh. Pull out the core. Use your fingers or a small spoon to scoop out the pulp and discard. If desired, save the cap to place on top of the tomato at serving. Trim the bottom as needed. Place each tomato upside down on the folded towel to drain.
In the bowl of a food processor, place the drained chickpeas. Process to puree, scraping down and repeating until a thick paste is created. Add the avocado and tahini and process until smooth, scraping down as needed. Add the lemon juice and salt and process to mix.
Scrape the chickpea mixture into a medium bowl. Add the shredded carrots and stir to mix.
Scoop approximately 1/3 cup of the carrot mixture and spoon into each tomato, using your fingers to press it into the cavity. Mound the filling on top of the tomato. Place each finished tomato on a serving plate or in a storage tub. Garnish with parsley.
Serve within 24 hours.
