This vegan roasted red pepper dip is a super simple appetizer and perfect for whipping up when you are tired of hummus. All you need are a couple simple ingredients like walnuts, chickpeas, garlic, and roasted red peppers from a jar. #vegan #glutenfree

Roasted Red Pepper Dip | Vegan

This simple roasted red pepper dip is my new favorite party food! Just like hummus, you can throw all the ingredients into a blender and puree until smooth and you have an irresistible dip that is great with crackers or veggies. This roasted red pepper dip is a hybrid of hummus and this red pepper/walnut spread called muhammara that originated in Syria. Traditional muhammara ingredients include: Aleppo pepper, walnuts, breadcrumbs, and olive oil. Some adaptations may also include garlic, lemon juice, cumin and pomegranate molasses. Check out this recipe if you want to try a traditional muhammara.

Is roasted red pepper dip good for you?

Thanks to the red pepper, this dip is loaded with vitamins A and C. The walnuts add heart healthy omega 3 and the chickpeas are a good source of protein and fiber. All of which make this dip a healthy snack option! In fact, this week I’ve been snacking on it after work to curb the munchies before dinner is on the table.

How to serve roasted red pepper dip

I usually serve this with cracker and cut vegetables like carrots, celery, or cucumber. Use it as a spread on toast/pita or a sauce for grilled tofu or roasted vegetables.

    Debbie, I had made some regular chickpea hummus yesterday for the Fathers Day festivities. I saw your red pepper hummus recipe today. So I just through in the left over hummus I had into the blender and added all of the ingredients in YOUR recipe minus the chickpeas. Man-o-man, that flew off the counter in no time. Everyone loved it. Thanks for your recipes and our interest helping to make people eat more healthy food.
