HUMMUS WITH PUREED SESAME SEEDS (NO PRE-MADE TAHINI HERE!)
No tahini and you're craving hummus? No problem! Dig out that bag of sesame seeds lurking in your cupboard and make this wonderful chick pea dip. I wonder if toasting the sesame seeds first would be good... Usually hummus also calls for added oil which certainly does add richness, but lots of calories too. There is no (or little) added fat in this recipe so why not enjoy a healthy dip guilt-free?

HUMMUS
Homemade hummus is very easy to make. If you don't have any tahini (a paste made from sesame seeds), a chickpea purée without it is still quite delicious. Just add more olive oil.
