Buffalo Hummus - Healthy Game Day Appetizer

Its almost time for the BIG GAME! The Super Bowl is TOMORROW!!! I'm not a big football fan but I love any excuse for a party!  We aren't attending a party but we are having a few friends over.  You better believe they will be expecting some yummy healthy goodies to much on!  What would a Super Bowl be without GAME DAY TREATS?!

Instead of something full of fat and not many nutritious ingredients, I will be serving this SUPER YUMMY Buffalo Hummus!  It is just the right amount of spicy with tang.  I would by lying if said it didn't taste like buffalo chicken wings!!! Serve it up with some celery, cauliflower, cucumbers or tortilla chips!  This dish is perfect for parties or eating all by yourself!  It would make a great sandwich spread or topper to chicken before you baked it!  I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!  


Ingredients:
1-15 ounce can chickpeas, drained - preferably Organic 
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon sea or Himalayan salt
1 clove garlic
2-3 tablespoons Frank's Red Hot hot sauce
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tsp olive oil

Directions:Blend everything except olive oil together in a food processor or high speed blender. Once well combined, add olive oil and mix again.  Add small amount of water if too dry. Serve immediately or save in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Great as a dip or sandwich spread!

Want to know a secret!  This dish is also Vegan, Gluten Free, Nut free and Soy free!  It is also approved on the 21 day fix!  The hummus is an approved blue container, veggies a green container and if you used chips, a yellow container!  Enjoy 21 day fixers!!!!
