# Steps:
01 - In a medium bowl, mash avocados until smooth. Stir in lime juice, garlic, cilantro, salt, ground cumin, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
02 - Preheat the oven broiler or grill. Place whole red bell peppers under the broiler or on the grill, turning occasionally, until skins are charred and blistered, about 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, cover tightly, and let steam for 5 minutes. Peel off skins and discard seeds.
03 - In a food processor, combine peeled roasted red peppers, softened cream cheese, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth. Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate until served.
04 - In the food processor, combine chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, ground turmeric, ground cumin, garlic, and salt. Blend until smooth, adding cold water gradually to reach a creamy, spreadable consistency. Transfer to a serving bowl.
05 - Spoon each dip side-by-side on a long serving platter, creating a tricolor presentation. Garnish optionally with fresh herbs, a drizzle of olive oil, or a sprinkle of preferred spices.
06 - Accompany the dips with fresh vegetable sticks, pita chips, or gluten-free crackers for a vibrant appetizer offering.
