Roasted Red Pepper Hummus

MacChef's Note:

A delicious version of a classic made healthier by using chicken broth in place of olive oil. However sub oil for broth if you wish. Serve with pita chips made by cutting pita pockets into eighths. Split each eighth in half, spray with olive oil cooking spray, sprinkle with oregano or greek seasoning and toast for 7 minutes at 425 degrees.

Looks yummy; vegetable broth can be used instead of chicken to actually make this a vegetarian dish.
