Cilantro Lime Hummus

Ever since I got back from my holiday cruise to Mexico, I have been craving everything Mexican.

It’s been inspiring me to get more creative with different dishes, like this hummus.

I love making my own hummus now. It’s so easy to just throw it all together and blend it up. Plus I can experiment and make unique flavors of hummus that I can’t normally find in the grocery store, like this Cilantro Lime Hummus!

Oh, and while I was in Mexico I picked up this cute little bowl to put this hummus in. I love it, it’s so festive, colorful, and the perfect size for dips!

Cilantro Lime Hummus

To make this hummus I used simple healthy ingredients:

-Chickpeas

-Tahini

-Cayenne Pepper

-EVOO

-Garlic

-Fresh Cilantro

-Green Chilis

and

-Lime Juice

Just add all of this to a Cilantro Lime Hummus

You can also play around with the spiciness of this hummus. I’m more of a medium spice gal, but if you like more spice you could simply add more cayenne pepper or green chilis to really kick this up a notch.

If you wanted it less spicy, just add less cayenne pepper or green chilis to this. Or put in more lime juice to kind of mellow out the spice.
