Roasted Red Pepper Hummus (Tahini-Free) image

I love hummus - but I hate paying for it at the store because I know how cheap the actual ingredients are, so I started to make it myself! I never have tahini on hand, so I do without. Makes the perfect snack at work along with some carrots, sugar snap peas, and cucumbers! I never measure the spices, so below are approximations. **You can also use dried/cooked chickpeas instead of canned.

Time 7m

Yield 5 , 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 (15 1/2 ounce) cans chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
1 -2 garlic clove
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup roasted red pepper (I use Priano from Aldi, in water not oil)
1/2 lemon, juice of
1/2 teaspoon cumin (or more to taste)
1/2 teaspoon chili powder (or more to taste)
salt

Steps:

  • Drain both cans of chick peas, reserving the liquid from one of the cans.
  • Add both cans of beans to food processor along with 1-2 cloves of peeled garlic (no need to chop, the food processor will take care of that!), about half a jar of roasted red peppers in water (also add a bit of the liquid if you'd like to boost the pepper flavor), juice from 1/2 lemon, cumin, chili powder, and some salt.
  • Drizzle in olive oil (I usually use do one turn of the food processor, approximately 1 TBSP).
  • Blend for about 30 seconds. Add some of the chickpea liquid if needed to get the right consistency.
  • Continue to blend until smooth and creamy, scraping the sides and adding more liquid as needed.
  • Enjoy with your favorite veggies or pita chips. My favorites are carrots, cucumber slices, sugar snap peas, and red bell peppers!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my hummus turned out really watery. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

I thought this hummus was just okay. The flavor was a bit bland for my taste.

This hummus is so good! It's creamy and flavorful, with just the right amount of smokiness from the roasted red peppers. I love that it's tahini-free, too, because I'm allergic to sesame seeds.

I'm not usually a fan of hummus, but this one is amazing! The roasted red peppers give it a really unique and flavorful taste. I will definitely be making this again.

This roasted red pepper hummus is a game-changer! The smokiness from the roasted peppers adds a new dimension of flavor that I've never experienced in hummus before. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly.
