This White Bean Roasted Red Pepper Hummus is the perfect healthy appetizer for your Super Bowl Party this year!
Less than 10 days to the Super Bowl folks!
I know not everyone is interested in the game, I get it.
But I know everyone is interested in the food at the party!
If you’re planning ahead and happen to be looking for an easy peasy, totally tasty, healthy little appy you’ve got to try this White Bean Roasted Red Pepper Hummus.
I’ve been trying to take the healthier route this year when it comes to my snacking.
I’ve made this white bean hummus weekly since the first of the year.
A Few Cook’s Notes for White Bean Roasted Red Pepper Hummus Recipe:
I used cannellini beans, but you can also use Great Northern white beans.
You can use either a 12-oz. jar of whole roasted red peppers, seeded and stems removed or a jar of roasted red pepper strips, drained.
Feel free to serve this hummus with your favorite raw veggies.
You can make this dip a day or two before your party, so that the flavors meld together.
It’s inexpensive to make and super simple to throw together. Just toss all the ingredients in your food processor and pulse away.
You’ll love it’s smooth and creamy texture and how flavorful it is.
I love serving it with sliced cucumbers, flatbread crackers and olives. I could seriously make a meal of this platter.
Hope you guys enjoy it too!

this really sounds delicious – just my kind of dip. i think i’ve mentioned this before but there are just so many ads on your page, i can barely get to the content. the screen constantly jumps from one ad to the other, so i can barely bother to continue. sorry! but i probably won’t return here cos it is just soooo frustrating. cheers sherry

Thanks Sherry. Sorry to hear that. I haven’t gotten any other complaints.

I could eat hummus every day and never get tired of it! This one looks extra special, and I love the idea of using cannelloni beans for it – thanks for the idea! (And, you’re right, for me Super Bowl is about the snacks way more than the game!)
Mary Ann
Hope you give this one a try Laura! It’s my new favorite!
