Tasty Dips 01/24/2012
Having a tasty dip makes eating vegetables a more pleasurable experience. It's often a chore attempting to find a dip that is preservative free, w/out sugar or artificial sweeteners or a ton of ingredients that you need a degree in chemistry to decipher. Raw Zucchini Hummus (yields over 3 cups; you can easily cut this recipe in half) 2 zucchini, chopped ½ cup lemon juice 1 tsp salt 1 ½ tsp cumin 1 cup raw tahini (the Artisana brand is nice; substitute regular tahini if you need to) 4 tbsp olive oil ½ cup raw sesame seeds Vitamix instructions: Put all ingredients in your Vitamix and blend to a rich perfection! Food processor instructions: Same as above. You may have a hard time blending the sesame seeds, so I recommend soaking them for a few hours first, halving the recipe, and stopping frequently to scape the bowl. You can also omit the seeds entirely, but in that case I also recommend omitting the olive oil to keep a thick consistency. CommentsLeave a Reply |
