Spicy Ranch Hummus

This recipe was created for Foodbuzz Family Bites, sponsored by Hidden Valley Ranch. This is a fun take on classic hummus. In place of tahinni I used the buttermilk flavored Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing Mix and sour cream. This hummus was a hit with the entire family and was the perfect conduit for some fresh veggies on Super Bowl Sunday.

2 cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed (reserve the liquid from one can of beans)

3 tablespoons light sour cream

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 package Hidden Valley Ranch Buttermilk Recipe Salad Dressing Mix

1. Combine the above ingredients in a blender or food processor. Slowly add the reserved liquid from the beans into the blender until the desired consistency is reached.
2. Serve with fresh veggies, snack crackers or pita chips.
