At the Summer Fancy Food Show, Lantana Foods showcased its Cauliflower Hummus as a vibrant new take on traditional chickpea-based hummus dips and spreads. The vegan, kosher, gluten-free and non-GMI product is made with a base of white beans and comes topped with a combination of pickled carrots, cauliflower and caramelized onions.
The cruciferous vegetable cauliflower has proven itself to be a satisfying alternative for everything from breaded coatings and rice to pretzel snacks and traditional pizza crusts—especially for those who are seeking out gluten-free and low-carb options.
This snack product is one of the many vibrant vegetable hummus spreads produced by Lantana Foods, which also makes a colorful assortment of hummus with carrots, edamame, beets, cucumbers and three types of spicy peppers.
