Great Northern beans have a mild nutty flavor and are a great way to add variety to your hummus routine. This deluxe-tasting dip's success lies in the combination of sweet jarred roasted red bell peppers and the spicy kick of smoky Buffalo-style hot sauce. Hardcore heat-seekers will want to load up on the hot sauce here. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Serve this flavor-packed buffalo hummus with cut veggies, pita squares, or whole grain crackers.
Tips
Bean swaps: Navy beans, pinto beans, and cannellini beans would also work well here.
Gluten-free version: To make this gluten-free, be sure to use a gluten-free hot sauce.
