I'm fairly certain I've mentioned it on the blog before, but I have a mild addiction to hummus. Well if I'm being honest maybe it's a tad more than mild, but you get the gist. I'm obsessed with trying different flavors, with or without tahini, and slathering it on anything remotely appetizing. Like always, if I fall in love with a dish, I have to make my own. For the last 2 months roasted red pepper has been the flavor du jour, and then I stumbled onto some Sundried Tomato Hummus at a friend's house last week.... Let's just say it's so good I had it for breakfast. See what I mean? It's a problem y'all.
8 oil-packed sundried tomatoes
1 can garbanzo beans, drained & rinsed
1 small clove of garlic
2 TB tahini
Juice of 1 lemon
4 TB extra virgin olive oil
1/8 tsp sea salt, to taste
freshly ground pepper, to taste
pinch smoked paprika
1. Combine the first 5 ingredients in a food processor. Add the oil as you blend the ingredients until you get the consistency you desire. Keep in mind, you can always add a little water to thin out the hummus.
2. Now add salt, pepper & the smoked paprika. Stir until combined.
3. Top with a drizzle of evoo, a clove of garlic & sundried tomatoes on top. And serve with pita triangles, tortilla chips and/or veggies like sliced peppers, cucumber, carrots. Enjoy!
Super easy, right? Seriously, make this today. You'll thank me later. Unless of course, you eat so much that you gain a few pounds. In that case, I'm truly sorry. It's addictive I tell 'ya!
So what's your favorite kind or brand of hummus?

That looks delicious. I currently have a store bought red pepper hummus in the fridge.
I've never made my own hummus so I will definitely try this recipe. Thanks for sharing!
i love hummus but i still have never tried making it at home - must change that soon! yours looks wonderful. =)
YUM! I'm a hummus fanatic as well. I'm always looking for new ways to make this fabulous dip. TFS the recipe.
Looks so yummy and who doesnt love hummus! Cant wait to try it girl. Hope you had a great Easter
Mmmmmm, hummus! I keep saying I'm going to make my own, but I never quite get around to doing it. Your recipe may be the straw that breaks that camel's back!
I have been wanting to try making my own hummas since I got my mini processor last year. Just having trouble narrowing it down to which kind. YOu might have just solved that issue for me.
I'm a hummus addict, but I've never had my own. I think I'm going to have to have Greek tonight!
I'm obsessed with hummus!! I've never made my own.. but my favorite flavor here lately has been Roasted Red Pepper. SO good. I need to try out this recipe! It would be fun to make :)
Homemade hummus is the best! I usually make Ina Garten's recipe. With lemon and lots of garlic. My husband likes it when I add jalepeno and cilantro. I also make a great black bean dip with tomato, cumin and cilantro. Now I want to get my cuisenart out at midnight!
Red pepper hummus is currently my favorite. But I can always get on board with anything that contains sun-dried tomatoes. Hummus without Tahini... how does that turn out? I've only made it once and bought this huge thing of Tahini and ended up tossing it because I wasn't sure how long it would be good for. I haven't made my own since because I don't know much about Tahini and it's shelf life or where I can get a slightly smaller container of it.
Thanks for linking this up. My friend made a spinach hummus today, and it was divine, too.
Oh yum!! Sounds delicious!
