Baba Ganoush, the ultimate meatless dip only second to hummus!
.
This smoky eggplant dip is naturally vegan and is a great way to change up your hummus game. It uses almost all the same ingredients except for chickpeas or garbanzos. Some use a food processor to make it but I find when you roast the eggplant till soft you can chop it all by hand and get a great texture. The best part- this dip is even better cold.
