Blend all ingredients together in a food processor until creamy.

If using canned beans, drain and rinse first. For homemade beans, make ahead of time and refrigerate. Add all ingredients to food processor. For a milder hummus, use less chipotle pepper or substitute fresh ground white or black pepper. Or add more chipotle pepper to make this spicier.

As a low calorie snack or lunch, measure 2T to 1/4C hummus and put in small serving dish. Cut-up fresh vegetables of your choice, like cucumbers, carrots, celery, zucchini, bell pepper, broccoli florets, cauliflower florets, snap peas, etc. Other options are cherry or grape tomatoes and lightly steamed vegetables like asparagus, snow peas, or bok choy.
