I could seriously just eat a bowl of this stuff straight.  It is seriously so good and has a great blend of spice and freshness.  The Chipotle Lime Hummus is great served up with chips for dipping, or traditional dippers like pita bread and veggies.  (Bell peppers = win!).

It only takes a few minutes to make this Chipotle Lime Hummus.  Just throw all the ingredients in a food processor, blend, and you are good to go!  If you do not have a food processor, you need one!  I have two and I use them alllllll the time.  They can do so many things: shredding, slicing, blending, etc.  We buy brick cheese and it is shredded in seconds.  I use the processor to make all my sauces and salsas, grind cookies for crusts, the list goes on and on.  This affiliate link is for a food processor very similar to the one that I have.  I could not live without mine!

We took this Chipotle Lime Hummus camping with some friends of ours and it was a perfect way to get a flavorful protein snack in while we were enjoying the campsite.  And since it is a healthy vegan and vegetarian dip, it is easy to eat a LOT of it.

Servings: 1 cups

Calories: 372kcal

Ingredients

• 1 can garbanzo beans drained (approx 15.5 oz)
• 2 Tablespoons chopped chipotle peppers in adobo
• 2 Tablespoons tahini paste
• 2 limes
• 2 cloves garlic minced
• 1 Tablespoon olive oil
• 1 Tablespoon fresh cilantro
• 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

• In a food processor, combine the beans, chipotle, tahini, juice of 2 limes, garlic, olive oil, cilantro, and salt. Blend until you reach your desired consistency. Add a little water at a time to thin it out if needed.
• Season to taste with additional salt, lime, and chipotles. Best served chilled with your favorite dippers like pita bread, chips, celery, bell peppers, carrots, etc.

Notes

I prefer to serve the hummus cold by refrigerating for at least 30 minutes.

I love buying my chipotles in adobo already chopped.  You can get them here!  Otherwise, you can use whole peppers and chop them yourself.  The pre-chopped peppers tend to have more sauce in the jar than the whole peppers, which I prefer.
