This simple zucchini dip is wonderful with pita chips or crudites.
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini cut into chunks
- 2 cloves garlic
- 3 tablespoons tahini
- 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
Instructions
- In a food processor or blender, add the zucchini and pulse to chop into small pieces.
- OPTIONAL: Scoop out the zucchini and put into a mesh colander and press with the back of a spoon to remove excess water. Return to processor.
- Add the garlic, tahini, 1 tablespoon olive oil, lemon juice, and salt, and blitz everything together until smooth. Add the second tablespoon of olive oil if desired.
- Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Notes
- The zucchini will create excess liquid as the dip rests; stir it back into the hummus or carefully drain before serving.
- Makes 2 cups.
