    The only that could make classic hummus even better - roasted red peppers!

    So I've added them as a flavorful twist in this simple hummus recipe. It's so simple to make that you could have it ready in just 10 minutes.

    So what are you waiting for?

    This roasted red pepper hummus is:

    • Packed with savory flavor!
    • Perfect for dipping your favorite chips or veggies.
    • Ready in just 10 minutes.
    • 100% vegetarian and vegan friendly

    Tips & Tricks

    Tahini is the key ingredient in all traditional hummus recipes. You can find it at most grocery stores these days, or you can order it here.

    Using dried chickpeas. It's easiest to use canned chickpeas for hummus, but you can also choose dried. To make hummus with dried chickpeas, soak them for 8 hours or overnight, and then proceed with the recipe.

    Roasted red peppers. You want the jarred roasted red peppers that are packed in water. Alternatively, you can sometimes find freshly roasted red peppers in the deli section of your supermarket.

    Food Processor. Hummus is easiest to make in a food processor. But if all you have is a blender, that will work too. You may need to add additional oil or pause to scrape the sides periodically, in order to get the mixture to puree.

    Variations

    You can use this roasted red pepper hummus recipe as a base for all kinds of delicious hummus creations! Try replacing the roasted red peppers with other flavorful ingredients like kalamata olives, artichoke hearts, or roasted garlic cloves.

    For some really fun twists, check out our edamame hummus recipe or this caramelized onion hummus. Or get more flavored hummus ideas here!

    How to Use Hummus

    Hummus is most often served as a dip - with crackers, pita chips, or fresh veggies for dipping.

    But it's also delicious as a spread in sandwiches and wraps. This easy hummus wrap is a good place to start! Or try it spread atop this hummus flatbread.

    It's also a delicious way to stuff baked veggies like these Hummus Stuffed Baked Potatoes.

    And if none of those suit your fancy - check out these other tasty ways to use hummus.
