Red pepper hummus is a flavorful twist on the classic Mediterranean dip, originating from Middle Eastern cuisine. This creamy spread combines traditional ingredients like chickpeas, tahini, garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil with roasted red peppers for a smoky, slightly sweet taste. Chickpeas provide plant-based protein and fiber, supporting digestion and promoting feelings of fullness. Tahini, made from sesame seeds, contributes healthy fats and essential nutrients like calcium and iron. Olive oil offers heart-healthy monounsaturated fats. The roasted red peppers add vitamins, particularly vitamin C, while enhancing the vibrant flavor. Red pepper hummus is naturally gluten-free and suitable for vegans. While low in saturated fat, it can be calorie-dense due to its high fat content, so portion control is key for those monitoring caloric intake. Enjoy as a dip, spread, or salad topping for a nutritious and delicious snack.
