This Middle Eastern dish makes a great spread or dip and takes the edge of your hunger before your meal. It’s is a great way to take the edge of your hunger in the form of a protein boost plus it’s vegetarian. For anyone on a weight control diet, you could substitute Tahini with greek yogurt. Enjoy!

Preparation
(1) Place the chickpeas, lemon juice crushed garlic cumin and tahini into a blender and whiz until slightly chunky, adding a little water to get to desired consistency.
(2) I like my consistency to be slightly chunky but I now prefer it a little more runny than the one I have pictured here ( made in early December adn sometimes my taste changes). A chunky consistency is good for Crudites.
Serve with: –
Black and green olives, carrots cut into batons or any other vegetable cut in bite sized pieces
