This Taco Temptation Pinto Bean Hummus is one of our new favorites! It’s a creamy blend of pinto beans, tahini, cilantro, jalapeños, lime juice and our brand new seasoning blend! It’s a great side dish for tacos, enchiladas or a fun dip for your next party! 🌮
This pinto bean hummus is a bold and vibrant dip that combines creamy, earthy pinto beans with the fresh, zesty flavors of cilantro and jalapeño. The tahini adds a rich, nutty undertone, while the garlic and olive oil bring a smooth, savory depth. The Taco Temptation seasoning infuses the hummus with a hint of smoky, spiced warmth, elevating it to a uniquely Southwestern-inspired dish. The result is a flavorful and satisfying spread with a perfect balance of heat, tanginess, and richness.
We are in the process of making all kinds of fun and different hummus recipes and two of our other favorites are our Kalamata Olive Hummus and our Cilantro-Jalapeno Hummus. The next one we try will be a smoky tomato and red pepper hummus, but we are still working out the deets on that one!
We love this dip served with a garnish of jalapeno slices, lime wedges and your favorite chips!
