    One thing I love about hummus is the versatility of it. Once you have the core ingredients down, you can add virtually any vegetable, seasoning, or spice and instantly switch up the flavor. Plus, I find homemade hummus to be so much tastier than the store bought variety.

    You may have already tried my roasted garlic hummus, but today we’re making a few adjustments to that recipe. The result? Roasted red pepper hummus. It’s creamy, flavorful, peppery, a bit garlicky, and made with 6 healthy ingredients.
