Directions
Tos the garbanzo beans, avocado, and a splash of water into your blender. Add in the sesame seeds, lime zest, and lime juice for that bright, tangy kick. Drizzle in the olive oil, then sprinkle in some fresh rosemary to give it a lovely herbal note. Blend everything together until the mixture is nice and smooth. If it feels too thick, just add a little more water until you get the texture you like. Give it a taste and adjust the lime or seasoning if needed. Serve it up with some crunchy veggies or warm pita for dipping.
