"Perfect party food or just a healthy snack. Game night, BBQ's, cocktail parties, or I love to take it to work for a healthy light lunch or snack. Serve with pita chips, crackers, or fresh vegetables. If you have the time, roast your own peppers and garlic; they are so easy to prepare."

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Hummus ... Add the beans, red peppers, garlic, lemon juice, tahini, basil, cayenne, to a food processor and pulse until smooth. Season with salt and pepper and pulse one last time.
Step 2
Serve ... I like to refrigerate a few hours to develop the flavors before serving. It can be served chilled or room temperature. Enjoy with pita chips, crackers, or vegetables. ENJOY!
