Spicy Red Pepper Hummus : A healthier option than nachos
It is Saturday and this is a great recipe for game day. Yes, I know it is not nacho cheese, but you can dip with vegetable chips or bean chips and save a whole lot of calories. This is a spicy hummus that will make you taste buds scream.
AuthorChuckHThis makes 6-8 servings and is a perfect substitute for nacho cheese or guacamole. It has 2.1 grams of fiber. If you toast high fiber tortillas to make chips and dip serving broccoli you can get 1/2 your required fiber in one meal.
Ingredients:
Directions:
Juice lemon and set a side.
Chop parsley and set a side.
Chop garlic and set a side.
In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, roasted red peppers, tahini, garlic, lemon juice, cumin, red pepper flakes, cayenne, and salt. Pulse a few times to chop up the chickpeas.
With the motor running, pour in the olive oil and process until smooth paste forms.
Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate for about 1 hour.
Serve with pita chips, celery sticks, carrots sticks, and radishes. You may want to let it warm slightly before serving.
Enjoy!

- This recipe has less than 100 calories per serving. I usually have it with a serving of Beanitos Tortilla chips or in a high fiber taco shell.
- I have added just about any pepper and you can add a spicier if you prefer.
- Cook time is actually refrigerator time.
