Reviews
This was really good. I made it for an appetizer before the Thanksgiving feast and it was a hit!
This makes the best hummus. I’ve made it several times and have done some variations. I have topped it with a swirl of chili garlic sauce. I’ve topped it with sundried tomato pesto. My favorite so far to top it with a thin layer of good olive oil and halved, mixed olives.
Loved it! Will never by store bought again!
I loved how simple it was but it was a little bland for me. I added a 1/2t cayenne pepper and 1/4t cumin. Perfect and delish! Thank you Valerie!
The hummus came out great!! Even better if you make your own pita chips to go with it.
Great, easy to make and very tasty with pita, lavash, crackers, and crudités.
Absolutely delish! I love the roasted red peppers and this recipe is so easy I will never buy Red Pepper Hummus again. Thanks Valerie!
FAR too much salt. I had to add another can of garbanzo beans to tone it down. Next time I’ll add no more than 1/2 teaspoon total and may start with increments of 1/4 teaspoon.
OMG!! This recipe is so easy and so good! I don’t think I’ll ever buy hummus again! Thanks Val!
So easy to make and to keep the ingredients on hand.
