Spicy Red Pepper Hummus

November 30, 2018 by Dallas Leave a Comment

Finished hummus in bowl with chips

Ohh hummus. Where would vegans be without you?? Dipping chips into bowls of thin air, that’s where! Haha. Just kidding… kind of. There are an infinite number of delicious vegan dips, but we all know hummus… is boss.

And this hummus? It is soooo bloody boss, guys. It’s got pep, it’s got zzzip, it’s got that to-die-for orange colour (that’s not fancy photo editing – it actually looks like that once you’ve blended ‘er up), and it’s got my heart.

Hummus ingredients

To make this recipe Speedy Gonzalez, just use store bought roasted red peppers like I do. My local European specialty foods shop has wicked brands for awesome prices, so I always buy a few giant jars of peppers whenever I’m in there.

If you don’t have any chipotle powder lying around, you could sub smoked paprika, although it won’t be quite as, well, chipotle-ey.

Hummus ingredients in blender

You could use either lemons or limes for the juice and zest, as I’ve made it with both, and they’re both fantastic. And as for the garlic? Well, you know me. I like a lot. Dial it down a clove or two if you feel. If you’re as lucky as me and have a partner who loves to kiss you with your stanky garlic breath, then pile it on baby!

This recipe makes a pretty hefty batch of hummus, so if you’re making it for one (laughs at self, because I do usually make it for one, and still end up finishing the whole thing by the end of the week), then you can adjust the serving slider in the Recipe section.

I use mounds and mounds of this delicious hummus in my latest signature recipe, which will be posted in just a few short days, so hang onto your shorts!!

To be fully transparent, hummus, especially THIS hummus, has been an absolute game changer for me in ensuring I eat enough raw veggies. I love me veg, but I didn’t eat a ton of raw before hummus made its way into my weekly food prep routine. Now I go through heaps of cucumber, carrots, celery, and peas throughout the week. Just can’t get enough o’ that huuuummusss *sang to the tune of the Sugar Crisp cereal jingle*. Oh boy.

Let’s get started, shall we?
