Roasted Red Pepper Hummus Dip
Roasted red peppers, chickpeas, garlic, red chili, olive oil, tahini, and salt & pepper all blended in a food processor - easy peasy!
Ingredients
- 7.5 oz can of chickpeas 1/2 of a 15 oz can
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1/2 red chili pepper
- 1/2 garlic clove
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp tahini
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Chop de-seeded bell peppers into rough pieces, then spread on a baking sheet. Drizzle about 1/2 tsp of olive oil over peppers, making sure to cover each piece (I use my hands). Roast in the oven for about 30 minutes or even slightly charred and soft.
- Chop red chili peppers finely. Remove seeds, depending on the spiciness you desire in the hummus (remove all seeds if you are sensitive to spice).
- Add roasted red bell peppers, garlic, chili pepper, lemon juice, olive oil, tahini and chickpeas in a food processor (for this recipe, I used a small processor, if you double, use a regular/large food processor). Blend until smooth, adding extra oil olive if needed for creaminess. Season with salt and pepper.
- Serve with your favorite vegetables, pita bread, or pita crackers!
