Introduction

Made with white beans instead of garbanzo, gives it a creamier texture. Most recipes call for a bit of olive oil and more tahini (seasame paste), but this makes an even healthier, healthy treat. Serve with fresh veggies for lunch, a snack or a side dish. I divide into portions for lunch and snacks during the week Made with white beans instead of garbanzo, gives it a creamier texture.

    This is a great recipe! The Italian version is good, too. Use olive oil in place of tahini and add fresh parsley druing the puree stage. Light dusting with dried oregano in place of paprika. - 7/15/08
