Instructions
In a blender (a Blendtec or Ninja can handle this whole recipe--if you have a smaller blender, maybe half the recipe), or a food processor, add the canned beans that have been drained. Puree the beans for a couple seconds to get it going. Then add the lemon juice, salt, cumin powder, crushed red pepper and the roasted red peppers from a jar. Puree these ingredients until the beans are smooth. Add the olive to the hummus and continue adding until the mixture is smooth and soft. Season the hummus with more salt as needed. Serve with fresh vegetables or chips.
