One of my newly discovered snacks is hummus. I love roasted red pepper and garlic hummus, so I thought I would try to make my own. Off the bat – tahini (a popular middle eastern ingredient in hummus) is an expensive ingredient. Maybe $8 for 1lb of tahini is a “New York City” price for one of the “cheaper” grocers in our area, so let me know what else you find. Granted, this is for 1lb, so I can see this lasting a while.

Roasted peppers. I’m using the same method as I used for the tomatoes in the roasted tomato soup to roast the red peppers. Cut up the pepper, drizzle with olive oil, and roast in the oven for 20 mins. This ended up being really good! I googled hummus recipes and they all had the same ingredients, so I used this as a “1, 2, 3, 4 recipe” and added in the roasted red peppers and garlic.
