SPICY GARLIC HUMMUS



Spicy Garlic Hummus image

I have tried a lot of hummus recipes, and this one is a combination of a few of my favorites, and is now the only one I use. I grow my own little Super Hot Chili Peppers and so that is what I use, but you can substitute any pepper you like, or use hot pepper flakes. I like a lot of garlic and a bit of a kick, but this recipe is easily alterable to your own tastes so adjust it as you see fit. I like my hummus thick so I usually skip the water. Another nice variation is to add a bit of red, green, and yellow bell peppers. It makes the hummus really pretty! Any hummus lover will tell you that the spread can be used so many ways. My favorite uses for this is as a vegetable dip or as a sandwich spread in a whole wheat veggie wrap. Yum!

SPICY GARLIC HUMMUS

I love this recipe because it's easy and fast. I always use it for parties, and I always keep it in the fridge for a little snack. You can dip anything in it, although me and my friends prefer using fresh pita bread from a middle eastern market. Caution though, when I say spicy, I mean SPICY!!!
