Low Fat Red Pepper Hummus Ingredients: - 1 (16 ounce) can chickpeas - 2 tablespoons tahini - 1 tablespoon lemon juice - 2 -3 cloves garlic (pressed or crushed) - 1/2 cup roasted red pepper - 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin - 1 teaspoon coriander - 1/4-1/2 teaspoon cayenne - 1/2 teaspoon salt - fresh ground pepper Directions: Drain& rinse chick peas/garbanzos, reserving liquid. In small bowl, combine cumin, coriander, cayenne (use less if you dont want it very spicy, but we like it with 1/2 tsp) and salt, mixing thoroughly. Put garbanzo beans/chick peas in bowl of food processor with chopping blade and sprinkle the spice mixture over the top evenly. Add the tahini, lemon juice, garlic, roasted red peppers, and blend until well mixed. Add the fresh ground pepper. Once the hummus gets smooth, add some of the reserved liquid from the chick peas/garbanzos while it is being processed, until it reaches the desired consistency. Serve with toasted pita bread or as a dip or spread with almost anything.
