1 (14.5 ounce) can chickpeas ( garbanzo beans), drained
2 rounded tablespoons tahini sesame paste, found in both dairy and dry specialty foods sections
A drizzle extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon crushed pepper flakes
1 teaspoon (1/3 palm full) ground cumin
1 teaspoon (1/3 palm full) ground coriander
1 clove garlic, crushed
Coarse salt
1/2 lemon, juiced
Pita breads, grilled and cut into wedges for dipping

This is the Rachel Ray receipe it looks gorgeous and simple instead of using the pitta breads you can chop up veg like peppers and carrots and also use some sesame seed ryvita broken up.

    I've made it mixed with butternut squash so it had less calories and it was nice.
