Roasted Red Pepper Hummus Bites
Hummus is a really popular and healthy snack. It is also super versatile and can be served in a lot of ways. This roasted red pepper hummus bites recipe is SO quick to put together and is packed full of nutrients.

How to Make Roasted Red Pepper Hummus Bites
- Start off by chopping the cucumbers, roasted red bell pepper strips, and parsley into small pieces. You can buy jars of roasted red pepper strips ready to go in the jarred veggie section.
- Now fill each phyllo shell with hummus. I like to fill them about 2/3 of the way.
- Place a small amount of the diced veggies on top and then sprinkle with a little bit of feta cheese.
- The hummus can make the phyllo shells soft if they sit too long. It is best not to prepare these very far in advance. 🙂
