Tabasco Hummus

For my birthday, Aubrey took me to a bed and breakfast in Louisiana. The Madewood Plantation is definitely a good B&B to check out. After breakfast, we drove to Avery Island where Tabasco sauce is made. We came home with a ton Tabasco pepper pulp that can be used for a variety of things. Since we polished off the roasted garlic hummus, we wanted to try a hummus recipe using the pepper pulp. We were really pleased at how it turned out. It was pretty spicy, so if you decide to try this recipe (and have pepper pulp on hand), you can adjust the pulp amount to your liking.
If you don't have pepper pulp (which it's very likely that you don't), you could probably just use several drops of Tabasco sauce instead. We haven't tried this, so I have no idea how much. I would just start off with several drops and add more to your liking.

Ingredients:
2 cans chick peas/garbanzo beans

6 Tablespoons Tahini

Juice of 1 lemon

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

1-2 Tablespoons Tabasco pulp

6-8 Tablespoons olive oil

Directions:
Place the chick peas, tahini, lemon juice, sea salt, and Tabasco pulp in the food processor. Process for a few seconds and start pouring in the olive oil until it gets to a smooth consistency. Enjoy with pita bread, pita chips, or your favorite vegetable.
