My mother-in-law and I did a photoshoot for a local gym. No big deal.
Itz now the gym’s Facebook cover photo. We’re going places, baby.
Speaking of going places, you should go make this hummus stat. Since my Thanksgiving overload of tasty, yet heavy food, I’ve been trying to eat a bit cleaner, a bit lighter, and a bit healthier. I love cooked, roasted, grilled, and steamed vegetables and can eat them plain. Raw veggies, on the other hand, I need a little something for dippin’. I introduce to you, Spicy Roasted Red Pepper Hummus.
Spicy Roasted Red Pepper Hummus
Ingredients:
- 1.5 cups chickpeas
- 1 red pepper, roasted and diced
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 cup water, more as needed
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- pepper
- sriracha
Directions:
- Place all ingredients in food processor. Blend until desired consistency. Scrape sides every so often. Add water as needed if too thick.
I used about a tablespoon of sriracha, but we like it hot. And actually, I doubled the recipe because we go through hummus faster than we eat Thanksgiving leftovers. Well, almost.
What’s your favorite flavor of hummus?




That’s so cool that you are on a gym’s cover photo! Hot stuff

And when it comes to hummus, I’m a little boring – I usually just like the classic flavors the most.
Congrats on the photoshoot! That’s awesome!
And so is this hummus. I’ve always been a plain hummus lover so I haven’t experimented too much with different flavours, but this makes me want to give it a try!
That looks delicious, Linz!! I love hummus.
And congrats on the photoshoot! You look fabulous, as always
You’re such a rockstar! That pic is so badass. And so is this recipe! Mmm hummus.
Yum! I love hummas and I have a can of chickpeas ready to go!
Thats so neat that you did a photoshoot for your local gym! This hummus looks SO good! And I bet it tastes better than the store baught kind.
Look at chuuu, model status and all. Awesome
The hummus looks great too!
Any spicy hummus is a fave (love TJs horseradish…although this one sounds like it would even top that) OR I love Sabra Roasted Pine Nut. Just had a salad doused in it actually.
That sounds so good! Do you use Tahini to make hummus? does it taste ok without it?
I actually don’t use tahini and i think it tastes great!!

I am making your version (I still have chickpeas left), but my flavour was caramelized onion!!!
