Tom's Red Pepper Hummus
An exceptionally easy hummus to make.
Author: Recipe Renegade
Ingredients
- 2 Cans Chick Peas
- ¼ Cup Olive Oil
- Juice of ½ Lemon
- ½ cup Tahini
- 2 Teaspoons Powdered Garlic
- 3 to 4 Roasted Red Peppers (about ½ of a 16 ounce jar)
- ½ teaspoon Himalayan Salt
- OPTIONAL - ½ teaspoon Cumin
- OPTIONAL - 1 small Jalapeno - stem removed, cut in half and de-seeded
Instructions
- Drain and thoroughly rinse Chick Peas (Garbanzo Beans).
- With knife blade in bowl place all ingredients, excluding one roasted red pepper, into food processor. (If using cumin and Jalapeno, add now.)
- Process until completely mixed.
- Remove from processor and place in bowl.
- Chop remaining red pepper and stir into hummus or place on top as garnish.
Notes
Traditional hummus usually includes cumin. Since I'm not personally a fan of cumin, I've made ½ teaspoon optional. Not everyone is a fan of jalapenos and this recipe tastes delicious with or without the jalapenos.
