Categories     Beans

Time 40m

Yield 30 ounces, 30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 (15 ounce) cans garbanzo beans, drained & rinsed
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons tahini
1 red bell pepper, roasted
4 garlic cloves, minced
3 canned jalapeno slices
1 tablespoon jalapeno juice
3/8 cup lemon juice
1/8 cup water
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
3/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Roast Red Pepper (I broil mine in the oven for about 20 minutes) and then seal in a large gallon sized zipper bag for an additional 15 minutes. Remove skin & seeds.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together black pepper, cayenne pepper, cumin, oregano and red pepper flakes.
  • Blend garbanzo beans, olive oil, tahini, jalapenos, garlic and all liquids in a food processor or high powered blender.
  • Add remaining ingredients, including the roasted red pepper and bowl of dry seasonings.
  • Blend until smooth and desired consistency.
  • Cover and refrigerate overnight to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Stir well before serving.
  • Serve with sliced red bell peppers, cauliflower, cucumbers, crackers and/or pita chips! Enjoy!

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe, juicy red bell peppers. Roasting the peppers brings out their natural sweetness and smokiness.
  • Be sure to remove the seeds and ribs from the peppers before roasting. This will help to prevent the hummus from becoming bitter.
  • If you don't have time to roast the peppers, you can use jarred roasted red peppers. Just be sure to drain them well before using.
  • Use good-quality feta cheese for the best flavor. A firm, crumbly feta will work best.
  • If you don't have tahini, you can use another nut or seed butter, such as almond butter or sunflower seed butter.
  • Hummus is best when served fresh, but it can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

This spicy roasted red pepper and feta hummus is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. It's perfect for parties, potlucks, or just a casual get-together. The combination of roasted red peppers, feta cheese, and tahini creates a flavorful and creamy hummus that is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a tasty and healthy snack, give this spicy roasted red pepper and feta hummus a try. You won't be disappointed!
