Buffalo Wing Hummus

I was never into hummus until those little hummus and pretzel chip combo cups came out. I am now a certified believer in all things hummus. Over the next few weeks, I'm going to experiment with a few different flavors of homemade hummus, and our first attempt is Buffalo Wing Hummus.

Who doesn't love a good buffalo sauce? I remember growing up, we'd head to Charlestown Mall and Mom always got the Buffalo Chicken Salad. We'd also head over to Wings and Rings, or Wings and Things, or whatever it was called for some buffalo wings and celery sticks. Now buffalo sauce has come to hummus, a healthier but just as finger-lickin'-good way of getting that buffalo fix. New kitchen staple!

Buffalo Hummus
Ingredients
1 (15oz) can cooked chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
1/3 cup liquid reserved from chickpea can
1 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
Juice from 1/2 lemon (more or less)
3 tablespoons tahini
3 tablespoons buffalo hot sauce (more or less)
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon distilled white vinegar (eyeball it)

1. Toss all of the ingredients into a food processor or Ninja blender, and mix thoroughly. This runs on the thinner side, so add more beans if you'd like a thicker hummus.
2. Drizzle extra buffalo sauce on top and eat with celery, carrots, peppers, or a spoon.
