Snack Attack!






Whatever you call it: The Snack Bug, Munchies or the straight up craving to indulge-the desire for a serious snack strikes us all from time to time. This Snack Attack happened at 9pm one evening when I came home after work and seriously wanted to stuff my face on something yummy. Well, I hit the JACKPOT with this snack platter which includes my Spicy Sesame Hummus.
I was really hungry and threw this together very fast. You can use whatever veggies or fruits you have hanging around but I dare you to try my green apple, garlic dill pickle and beet combination. Trust my taste buds folks, they'll never lie to you.

Spicy Sesame Hummus
2 cups (or 1 well rinsed can) of chick peas
1-2 cloves of garlic
1 tbsp tahini
1 tbsp dark sesame oil
1-2 tsp Japanese hot chili sauce
pinch of salt to taste
1/2 tsp lemon juice
dash of cayenne pepper
5 tbsp of water (or however much is needed to thin out paste)
