Ingredients

  • 1 15-ounce can chickpeas, reserve liquid from can
  • 1 jalapeno
  • 3/4 Autumn Honey tangerine, peeled and segmented
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons tahini
  • Juice from one lemon
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • Sea salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
Add chickpeas, tangerine, garlic,  jalapeno, tahini, and lemon juice and to the container of a food processor.
Slowly add the olive oil while pureeing.
Slowly add just enough reserved liquid from the chickpeas, to create a smooth, creamy texture if needed. I used one tablespoon.
Season with salt and pepper as desired.

Serve with fresh veggies and crackers for dipping.

Would also be amazing on pizza and sandwiches!

Are you looking for the perfect snack? I got you! I love hummus, especially trying all the different varieties you can find in store. But, did you know that you can make hummus at home in under 5 minutes?? Yes! And with only a few ingredients.

Autumn Honey Tangerines are in season right now, and only for a short period of time, so I decided it was time for me to make a tangerine hummus…with heat. You all know that my family loves all things spicy, and since we all loved this Sweet & Spicy Tangerine Pizza, I figured my hummus would be just as good. And I was right.

To make homemade hummus you simply mix all the ingredients together in your food processor and enjoy! I served mine with sliced cucumbers, grape tomatoes and crackers. I tried the hummus on each, and it was delicious on each.

This Spicy Tangerine Hummus is perfect for serving at your gatherings, or maybe just for when you want a healthy snack!

Store in the refrigerator for up to 7 days in an airtight container…if it lasts that long! Mine was gone way before that!

This broad group includes tangelos, mandarins, clementines, and traditional tangerines. A comparison of per capita fresh tangerine and fresh orange availability over the last 20 years shows the share going to tangerines increasing from 20 to 40 percent.”

The article goes on to say that growth of the U.S. tangerine market coincides with the launch of marketing campaigns for easy-peel seedless mandarins…”
