Sweet Potato Hummus

(recipe from Whole Foods Market)

1 sweet potato, chopped and roasted in the oven until fork tender
1/2 (14.5 oz.) can garbanzo beans, drained (I used the whole can)
3 Tbsp. tahini
1 clove garlic
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 1/2 Tbsp. cumin (or to taste)
1 1/2 tsp. smoked paprika (or to taste)
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 carrot, grated
Dash of nutmeg

Place all ingredients into a food processor and blend until smooth.  Adjust seasonings and stir.

(A nice take on hummus.  I had a large sweet potato, so I adjusted the other ingredients to my taste.  I also added some olive oil and salt & pepper.  Serve with zucchini, cucumber, or whole-grain crackers.)
