This savory Pumpkin Hummus recipe won second prize in The 2010 Old Farmer’s Almanac Pumpkin Recipe Contest. It was submitted by Sharon Ricci. The pumpkin taste is not overpowering and it’s a wonderful appetizer, great for holidays, and excellent in a chicken wrap. Try it!

1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon chipotle pepper (ground or flakes)
