Summary
Enjoy this creamy red pepper hummus on organic, whole-wheat pita bread, or serve it as a dip with vegetables. It can even make for a thick, yummy salad dressing, too!
If using canned garbanzo beans, drain them, reserving liquid, and rinse beans.
2
Place beans, tahini, lemon juice, onions, garlic, cumin, black pepper, and roasted peppers in food processor or blender and process until smooth.
3
Add reserved bean liquid, or if using cooked beans, water or vegetable broth, as needed for a smoother consistency.
Chef's Notes
Variation You can make this recipe and add 1 cup loosely packed cilantro, basil, or parsley, or leave out the roasted red peppers and add the herb(s). You can also use cannellini beans instead of chickpeas, or a combination of both!
Green onion substitution You can substitute red or white onion for the green onion.
Garlic recommendation If you aren't wild about garlic reduce the amount.
