    This week #SundaySupper is all about recipes that are great for eating while watching the big game. Our host is  T.R. Crumbley of Gluten Free Crumbley.

    I love hummus, but I'll admit I don't make it at home all that often. I've had lots of different kinds, just recently discovering sweet and spicy hummus. You might remember I was a little late to the sriracha craze, but boy do I love it! Mix it in with some brown sugar, and it's like heaven for me! I know spicy isn't for everyone, you can easily adjust the amount of sriracha in this recipe.

    I made it in my blender, and I should have done it in two batches. I had to keep stopping the blender and stir the chick peas in. If you have a food processor, I would recommend using it instead. Otherwise, two batches is best.

      This sounds like the boars head sweet chili garlic style which I love and can't always find. Can't wait to try it.

      I was curious to see where the "sweet" came from. I never would've thought brown sugar! Love this idea.
