California Veggie Burger with Sweet & Savory Pumpkin Hummus

November 22, 2016 by Leah Goldglantz

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

I can’t stop making pumpkin recipes this season! Since I’m so obsessed with pumpkin and also consume massive amounts of hummus I decided to combine the two and make pumpkin hummus! This recipe is both sweet and savory, satisfying all tastes. I love using this hummus as a dip for veggies and crackers and also as a spread on my wraps and sandwiches. Make this hummus and enjoy it all week at home or bring it to your next gathering or party – trust me that it’ll be a huge crowd pleaser!

This recipe includes all healthy ingredients and is vegan and gluten-free. Pumpkins are packed with vitamins and nutrients such as Vitamin A, copper, potassium, calcium, zinc and selenium. This recipe is packed with many other healthy ingredients such as chickpeas, tahini, fresh lemon juice, olive oil and turmeric.

My favorite way to enjoy this pumpkin hummus is with an Amy’s California veggie burger. The flavors go so well together and I love the addition of an avocado. Let’s discuss why I love Amy’s veggie burgers so much: they taste incredible, are so easy to make and are made with all real, wholesome ingredients. They are free of soy and are non-gmo. I also love that they’re made with organic vegetables!

My favorite thing about Amy’s is that their products are free of some common allergens which is SO important to me these days! I recently found out my daughter is allergic to eggs. I have to read every label so carefully before she eats anything. It gives me so much relief knowing that she is safe with a meal or snack from Amy’s Kitchen. Thankfully she LOVES this veggie burger so we’ve been eating it all the time in my house!

Officially one of my new fave smoothies!! This blu Officially one of my new fave smoothies!! This blueberry zucchini almond butter shake is such a great way to get some veggies in! Thank you for this recipe @flora_and_vino 

1.5 cups almond milk
1 tbsp ground flax
1 tbsp almond butter 
1 scoop vanilla protein (can use vegan protein or vanilla collagen).
1 cup frozen blueberries 
1 frozen zucchini (I steam it first, let it cool, then chop it & freeze it). 

Blenddddd baby! So creamy & delish!!
I remember about two years ago I had a cough that I remember about two years ago I had a cough that was lingering so I went to a doctor that I had never been to before just to get checked out and make sure everything was okay. The doctor spent under 5 minutes with me, barely checked me out and almost immediately wrote me a prescription for an antibiotic. I was questioning why I was taking an antibiotic and he didn’t really take the time to explain and rushed off to another patient. I trusted my gut instinct that I didn’t need an antibiotic (I am definitely open to taking them was necessary), and 5 days later my cough went away on its own. I could dive deeper into this, but wanted to share that I am so glad I have found a doctor that spends adequate time with me - whenever I need - for as long as I need. You deserve that!! We all deserve that. 

I’m so lucky to be in such great hands with @steadymd - they’re an online doctor that’s available via an app on your phone and you can reach out with anything anytime! I spent over an hour last week on the phone with my functional MD going over bloodwork. All of my questions were thoroughly answered. A functional MD is the best fit for ME (my doc takes a whole person approach to health & understands things like training, recovery & nutrition), but whats so great is SteadyMD matches you with a doctor that aligns with YOU and your specific medical needs, diet, lifestyle and goals, not just someone who's local based on a quick quiz you take! 

SteadyMD is so convenient and refreshing and is EXACTLY what I've been looking for in a doctor. Plus it's super convenient - No co-pays. No waiting rooms. Just unlimited access to a doctor who “gets” you.

Thank you so much to SteadyMD for partnering on this post! I’m so grateful to partner with a company I believe in so much 🤍
Peanut butter & banana French toast roll ups!!! De Peanut butter & banana French toast roll ups!!! Def a big hit w the girls!! 

First cut the crust off the bread (I used sprouted organic whole wheat) and then flatten with a rolling pin. Spread a layer of peanut butter over the bread, followed by thinly sliced banana (the banana just covering 1/4 of the bread), then roll up. Dip the entire rollup in egg & almond milk mixture (1 egg, 2 tbsp almond milk, cinnamon & 1/2 tsp vanilla extract). Cook on a frying pan over medium heat in coconut oil (or grass-fed butter). I heat up the frying pan a few min before placing the rollup on it. Cook for 2 - 3 min on each side. Drizzle some peanut butter on top & ENJOY! 

It’s a beautifullllll day here in South Florida, so planning to spend the rest of the day outside w the girls & Josh. Putting my phone away & being present in what’s REALLY important (which is the people you’re spending time with in REAL life), not scrolling mindlessly on social media - something I’m really working on! 🤍
