Ingredients
  

  • 2 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 12 baby bell peppers
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • 3/4 pound thin spaghetti
  • 3/4 cup hummus
  • 1 cup pasta cooking water
  • 2 tablespoons basil pesto
  • 1 cup fresh basil
  • pinch crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions
 

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Heat a grill or grill pan to high heat. Toss the tomatoes and baby bell peppers with 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill the peppers until grill marks appear, about 3 minutes per side. Grill tomatoes until they just start to blister. Remove from heat. Set aside.
  • Once the water is boiling, cook the pasta until al dente. Just before draining, reserve at least 1 cup of the cooking water. Drain the pasta.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the hummus, pesto, basil, and crushed red pepper flakes. Add 1 cup of the reserved pasta water and whisk until smooth. Add the hot pasta and toss well to coat. Let sit for five minutes for the sauce to thicken.
  • Divide the pasta among bowls. Top with the blistered tomatoes and grilled peppers. Enjoy warm!
