The Spicy Hummus That Changed My Life Forever

tahini

🥗Healthier: sunflower seed butter

💰Cheaper: peanut butter

Sunflower seed butter provides a similar creamy texture while being nut-free.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is often less expensive and neutral in flavor.

In a blender combine the drained chickpeas, tahini, minced garlic, salt, olive oil, smoked paprika, chili flakes, Sriracha, and lemon juice.

Pulse the mixture until it starts to come together, scraping down the sides as needed.

If needed slowly add more water, one tablespoon at a time, until the hummus reaches your desired consistency. Should be nice thick and creamy.

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt. You can also add more paprika or Sriracha, or leave it as is with the garlic.

Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl.
