If you follow this blog you know that I’m a lover of all things Buffalo-wing-flavored. From wraps to pizza to cauliflower. And of course, chicken wings! I’m not picky as long as it has that great vinegary heat with a hint of butter. So why wouldn’t I make Buffalo wing hummus? Yep, smooth hummus with that sneak-up-on-you spicy classic flavor. Perfect and as an added bonus it was a big hit at our last family get-together. As much as I liked it, I can’t say I was expecting such high praise for it! It was a happy day for sure!
There’s nothing wrong with dipping pita bread in this Buffalo wing hummus, but since there’s wing flavors in there, don’t forget to have some celery and carrot sticks around too. Just to keep it ‘classic’.
It’s up to you to decide how chunky or creamy you want your hummus to be. If this is your first time making it I suggest that you start out slow. Process it in your food processor just a bit and take a taste. Want it creamer? Keep going. Error on the side of caution, though. You can’t un-process it!
