Appetizer Week: Spicy Three Pepper Hummus


Confession:  I adore spicy food.  But you already knew that.  For me, nothing's more disappointing than ordering a restaurant dish labeled "spicy," only to have it deliver a meager amount of heat.  I have been let down many a time.  (Taco Bell's Volcano Nachos, I'm talking to you.)  So when I come across a recipe with "spicy" in the title, I'm fully prepared to make it as directed, armed with extra amounts of the heat-containing ingredient on hand...just in case.  Not so with this Spicy Three Pepper Hummus recipe I found on Allrecipes.com.  Spicy, creamy, garlicky--everything I could want in a hummus.  Serve it up with whole wheat pita wedges at your next gathering, and watch it disappear!  

Tomorrow:  What the devil...
