Roasted Garlic, Pumpkin and Carrot Hummus

The idea to make a hummus from pumpkin, carrot and roasted garlic came to me after my love for my pumpkin, carrot and garlic soup. Not only is this combination seriously tasty but the orange vegetable family are loaded with carotenoids well proven for their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits.
