This Sriracha Hummus has spicy sriracha to give it a kick. It is easy to make and costs less than store bought. Perfect for game day!
This is around the tenth or eleventh hummus recipe that I have created, with at least three more waiting to be posted. Do I have a hummus obsession? Probably. Am I ever going to stop creating hummus recipes? Probably not.
I keep making them partly because those little 8 ounce tubs of hummus are just NOT worth their price. I also do it because hummus is one of those dips that is super easy to make, and making your own tastes better than store bought.
I used to buy really good hummus at a nearby grocery store. The brand did not have all the preservatives and unrecognizable ingredients that some hummus' have.
I was quite content back in those days buying an all natural hummus that was really delicious. That was until I realized how incredibly easy it is to make your own. It literally takes minutes to make.
I have found that once you have created your own personal basic hummus recipe formula, then you have it made. Pretty much all of my hummus recipes start the same way - with the same amount of tahini, garbanzo bean, lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil. After that, I add whatever I want.
One of my readers commented on a recent post that vegans don't usually have a lot of choices when it comes to Super Bowl parties. I totally agree. Many parties that I have been to have only a few things that I can eat.
It usually consists of veggies and hummus, or chips and guacamole, if I am lucky. If you need some vegan Super Bowl party ideas, I recently made a Vegan Pizza Football Cheese Ball and some Tofu Nacho Cheese Sauce.
Last year, I posted a recipe for Stuffed Date Footballs.

If you are a hummus fan and keen to eliminate preservatives I would encourage you to go one step further... Since a basic tahini is simply toasted sesame seeds blended with olive oil it is not too big a shift to replace 1-2tbsp sesame seeds as recipe ingredients and blend them in. I personally love the crunch and texture from a few stray seeds but if a creamier texture is required start them off with all other ingredients before the beans go in. Homemade Tahini is to die for also!
Willow Moon says
Thanks for the tip! I will also have to try making my own tahini. I have to always have some stocked because I love it so much, and we could all use more ingredients closer to the source!

Sriracha Hummus has Hubs intrigued already. We've never refrigerate his Sriracha or any of his hot stuff. The flavor is much better at room temperature. I get the Tabasco Brand, it's by license from Huy Fong, they grow their own organicThai bird chili’s, add an amount of their own habaneros ferment it like Huy Fong, But Add no preservatives like Huy Fong does. Hubs says it’s great. I get it from Amazon got some extra key chain bottles so he can take his favorites to work. Very hard to find pure quality Hummus, Hubs has been buying Sabra's brand, not bad but very salty & I'm
on a low sodium diet. So that means making our own I use Lemon for Middle Eastern Fare But Lime For Mexican & Thai/Asian fare. Probably make a double batch save half for me without Sriracha for me (Sriracha makes me ill🤢🤮) let him have it all. Mr🌶🌶🌶🌶‼️Sabra has just come out with a new flavor Caramelized Onion, gotta try making that! I got a great gluten free app on our anniversary, served wit( an assortment of veggie dippers. It was guacamole with spicy Pico de Gallo & a touch of Feta but definitely start keeping veggie dippers on hand. Even my baked Chips aren't freebies & definitely think veggies dippers for Hummus is the best idea since natchos. Regards! MA from Boston,MA❤️🙃🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐🙃❤️

Caramelized onion hummus sounds right up my alley. I make many dishes with caramelized onions. I'll have to check out the Tabasco sriracha sauce. I always have it stocked.
