JALAPENO AND LIME HUMMUS



Jalapeno and Lime Hummus image

With store bought hummus, the quantity is small and prices are high... plus I like to be able to control the ingredients, so I adapted this recipe from ingredient labels. Please note that I use Bertolli Extra Light "Tasting" olive oil for the mild flavor. This hummus will taste significately different if you use Extra Virgin Olive Oil and I don't recommend it... unless you like the strong taste. If you don't have a Kitchen Aide Garlic Press, I highly recommend one... I bought mine at Fry's Electronics... it is easy to use and clean. This Jalapeno and Lime Hummus is great as a dip, on pita or as a sandwich spread.

CILANTRO-JALAPENO HUMMUS AND TABOULI (A LA PITA JUNGLE)



Cilantro-Jalapeno Hummus and Tabouli (A La Pita Jungle) image

I'm addicted to this dish at a local pita chain and had to re-create it at home. The flavor combinations are out of this world; every bit is sheer heaven, I'm not even kidding! My taste buds have never experienced such excitement. This is a vegetarian recipe that will please non-vegetarians (my husband and I are both meat eaters). Pita Jungle uses bulgur in their tabouli (which is traditional) but I use quinoa in mine, to boost the protein a little, and I can't tell the difference in flavor. Prep time includes the recommended 24-hour "marinate" time for the tabouli. The hummus recipe is a variation of my Recipe #436722.

YUMMY CILANTRO-JALAPENO HUMMUS



Yummy Cilantro-Jalapeno Hummus image

If you love cilantro, you will love this hummus! I usually adjust the cilantro and lemon juice for flavor after mixing. Be sure to wear gloves while preparing the jalapeno; the oil will stay on your skin for a long time and will burn your eyes if you wear contacts. (I found out the hard way!) The hummus can be made up to 3 days ahead and refrigerated. Return to room temperature before serving with crackers or pita bread.

JALAPENO & ROASTED RED PEPPER HUMMUS



Jalapeno & Roasted Red Pepper Hummus image

Another nice hummus recipe that makes use of my garden's peppers by way of The Wichita Eagle who got it from the North American Olive Oil Association. This one is a little lighter on the lemon & tahini - adjust to your taste of course. Use a potato masher to crush the garbanzos if you do not have food processor or blender - did it that way myself for years & now I prefer a chunkier hummus to the ultra-smooth, go figure. Serve with baked pita bread or pita chips or stuff into tomatoes (big cherries piped with smooth spicy hummus are great heavy hors d'oeuvres).

JALAPENO HUMMUS BREAD



Jalapeno Hummus Bread image

This quick bread is moist with the flavors of spicy garlic hummus. Could also be made as muffins, but I don't know how many it would make or the cooking time. The spiciness can also be adjusted by using more or less jalapeno. Serve instead of corn bread.
