Easy Red Pepper Hummus

Ingredients

• 1 (16 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed (I soak the beans and take off the skins. Makes the hummus a lot smoother.)
  
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
• 1 tablespoon tahini
• 1 fresh lime, juiced
• 1 1/2 tablespoons water
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp. cumin
• pinch of cayenne pepper
  

Directions

1. In a food processor or blender, mix the garbanzo beans, olive oil, red bell pepper, tahini, lime juice, water, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, cumin, and cayenne. Blend until smooth.
2. Great with pita chips, veggies, and Mulit-grain Wheat Thins are my fav.!
