Roasted Red Pepper Hummus
Roasted Red Pepper Hummus is incredibly easy to make, regardless of whether you roast the peppers yourself or use purchased ones. This dip is smoky and creamy. It can be served as part of a Greek Meze platter with pitas, Tzatziki, Bruschetta, Saganaki, Halloumi Cheese with Lemon, Aleppo Pepper Chicken Skewers, or Pork Gyros.
