Hi Linda, you can use peanut butter or almond butter. It will taste a bit different, but just as delicious. I rarely have tahini in the house, but always have peanut butter, which is a lot cheaper.

This looks really good! I didn’t know that you could substitute peanut butter for tahini. Thanks for sharing!

Jacque, I love the smokiness of chipotle hummus, makes it so interesting. My splurge items are usually chocolate related.

Oh my! Just spent $3.95 for a very small container of this at the store on a “never go to the grocery store hungry” splurge. Should have Googled first – my bad. Thanks for sharing! I can’t wait to make my own.

Mrs. Accountability, I love the smokiness and deep undertones the chipotles bring. Thanks for visiting.

Emily, a great sandwich is spreading a pita with lots of the chipotle hummus, then adding sliced turkey, shredded carrot, thinly sliced cucumber, and red onion. Yum.

Kristen, ooh, must share jalopeno cilantro hummus recipe!

Yum. I make a pretty good jalepeno cilantro hummus. Don’t know why I never thought to use roasted jalepenos (chipotle peppers)!

Thanks for sharing this in today’s Fight Back Friday carnival.

Cheers,

Thanks for the tips. I try to give my husband a variety of foods in his lunch every day, including some fresh foods. But my hard working tile layer does need his hearty homemade bread sandwich!
