Roasted Red Pepper Hummus
Hi Everyone, have you ever bought roasted red pepper hummus in the grocery store and thought, “Hmm, maybe I can make this at home?”
We love Roasted Red Pepper Hummus because it’s so delicious and flavorful as a dip and spread.
It’s great with chips but also delicious with fresh-cut, vegetables, like carrots and celery.
Ingredients
- 15 ounces (1 can) drained, save the chickpea liquid to add later
- 3/4 jarred roasted red peppers, to be blended in the hummus
- 2-3 tablespoons jarred roasted red peppers, chopped
- 1 clove fresh garlic
- 1 tablespoon tahini
- 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/8 ground black pepper, optional, amount to taste
- 1-2 tablespoons olive oil (1/2 processed in the hummus, half drizzled on top, for serving)
- 1 teaspoon (a squeeze) of fresh lemon juice
- 1/8 teaspoon cumin, optional, blended in, plus more for sprinkling on top
- 1/8 teaspoon smoked paprika, optional, for topping
