Red Pepper Hummous



Roasted red pepper hummous

2/3 cup diced roasted red pepper, homemade or store bought, patted dry
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups cooked chickpeas
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
2/3 cup tahini, roasted preferred
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 cup water

Add all ingredients to food processor and process until extremely smooth, drizzling in a bit more water if it seems to thick.
To serve- drizzle with a bit of olive oil and sprinkle on some chopped parsley or some paprika ( try smoked paprika!).

I make hummus fairly regularly, never tried it with roasted red bell pepper in it though. Off the top of my head it seems like my recipe calls for some coriander too. And if you want some crushed red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. And I drizzle in olive oil not water. I'll try the roasted red bell pepper next time.
