GINGER & CILANTRO HUMMUS

March 6, 2013

Who is ready for St. Patrick’s Day? What does this holiday mean? Dave is not a big fan of this holiday, so we keep it pretty low key. I think we’d have to come up with some traditions to make it meaningful or have more of a purpose. Right now there’s not a lot to it, at least how it is culturally celebrated. David is a hummus lover, however, so I thought a festive version with two of his favorite flavors might be some festive-ness he would enjoy.

    I have looked & looked for tahini, but can’t find any in any of the grocery stores I shop at. Where do you get yours?
