Nothing is better than easy and just about nothing is better than Roasted Red Pepper Hummus. I found this recipe from Blendtec and I made it in my own Blendtec. If you’re looking to up your chances of owning one, you can check out my site and enter to win one this week (Ends May 31, 2015). You’ll just need Tahini and if you don’t have any, I recommend just making it yourself with some sesame seeds and olive oil.

I also decided to roast my own peppers. To do that, turn your oven 425°. Cut your peppers with the seeds excluded and place on a jelly roll pan. Sprinkle with olive oil, salt and pepper and roast in the oven for 25 min or until the are completely soft. I left the skin on mine before I blended but you can choose to remove it.
