Last Minute Creation
I made this for a little crafting get together last weekend. We sat around the coffee table with out needles (knitting and sewing), ate, laughed (gossiped a wee bit) and had a grand time!
It's basically hummus with white beans and thyme...but if you want a break down, I'd be happy to share :)
1 can white beans (I used organic northern beans)
1 Lemon
About 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
1 tablespoon tahini
Olive Oil
Black Pepper
1 tablespoon yogurt cheese (or greek yogurt)
1 clove garlic
Put all ingredients in food processor and blend thoroughly.
I had forgotten the garlic...so added some garlic powder after the fact (I also punched up the lemon flavor with some ground lemon peel).
I took a very laid back approach to food planning for this gathering. I was feeling stressed by the holidays and under the weather. So I made this along with my crowd pleasing lemon sage popcorn and offered a few different cheeses with oatcakes. I also asked people to bring some food to share. Potluck parties really do take the edge off. ;)
