I've always loved both roasted red peppers and roasted pepper hummus, so I finally gave it a shot here. The peppers add a great smokey and sweet flavor to the hummus, as well as a delicious orange color. It's mildly spicy from the cayenne, and works great on top of salads. I've made this alongside a batch of Cheesey Garlic Hummus, which you should also check out
