Roasted Red Pepper and Curry Hummus

Hummus is such a simple, healthy and delicious go-to snack that can be made in the blink of an eye. Add your favorite veggies, citrus and seasonings to the base ingredients, chick peas and olive oil, to make your very own signature hummus dip.

Ingredients:
2 cans of chick peas, rinsed
4 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 medium sized red pepper, cut into a couple large pieces
1 jalapeno pepper, cut in half and deseeded
3 cloves of garlic
1/2 white onion, cut into a couple large piece
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 tablespoon tarragon
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
Preheat your oven to low broil. Toss all vegetables in olive oil, salt and pepper and spread them out on a baking sheet. Low broil the vegetables for 20-30 minutes until they get slightly brown on top. Let the vegetables cool and put them in a food processor. Add the chick peas, curry powder, tarragon, salt and pepper (liberal) and start your food processor. Slowly add the olive oil (about 4 tablespoons in order to thin the dip out a little, but add more if need be) while the food processor is running to mix it in with the other ingredients.

Serve your hummus with pita chips and vegetables or spread on a bagel or sandwich!
