My husband and I recently had a red bean hummus at a restaurant and it was amazing. I like hummus okay, but thought this was so much better. I was surprised to not see any recipes on Zaar for it though. I knew it couldn't be a totally original idea so a quick internet search found this recipe from . 15 to make in March of 2007. While I am sure the cost has increased since the original posting I have to assume it is still an inexpensive dish.
Ingredients:
1 (15 ounce) can red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 garlic clove
1 -2 tablespoon lemon juice (to taste)
1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/8 teaspoon cumin
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons apricot preserves
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese (optional, leave out to make the dish vegan and lactose free) or 1 tablespoon cotija cheese (optional, leave out to make the dish vegan and lactose free)
Directions:
1. Blend ingredients in a food processor until well combined.
2. Chill first or serve immediately with chips, pita or any crusty bread.
