Taesha I just love this post! I am going to make this for the lunchboxes next week – thank you!
Yay! Healthy veggiefied kiddos everywhere!
Please suggest a substitute for Tahini, my daughter is allergic to sesame seeds. Thanks
Hmmmm that’s tricky. I know people sometimes replace tahini in conventional hummus recipes with a combo of olive oil and cumin. You could try that, but the dip may have more of a dressing consistency….of course,that may not be a bad thing!
Perhaps sunflower seed butter?
Taesha –
