Made with Mock Tahini 136409. I placed all the ingredients in the food processor at the same time and whirled away. Yummy. Thanks for sharing.

This was an easy basic recipe, and we gobbled it up (even my one year old!) - though I feel like it could have been a little bit tastier. Not too sure what to suggest on that front. I will definitely be using this again! Thank you so very much for posting!

This is so good! I halved the recipe with no problems, but left the amount of garlic the same (personal preference). I also added extra lemon juice and garbanzo liquid to make it extra smooth. I had this with pita bread and tomatoes for a tasty lunch. And there is tons left over! Thanks Charishma! This is my recipe from now on!
