    Hummus is one of those items that is a staple in my house. I like spicy foods, so it's no wonder I would have a Chipotle Hummus on my blog.

    This recipe is a favorite at my house. I've used it in many recipes over the years.

    If you like chipotle try my Chipotle Cream. It tastes great in tacos or a burrito.

    Maple syrup goes well with chipotle. I've used it in Maple Chipotle Baked Tofu, Maple Chipotle Cashews, and Maple Chipotle Black Bean Lettuce Wraps.
