Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons tahini
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt
- 2 ounces neufchatel cheese
- lemon finely grated zest of 1 small
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice fresh
- 2 garlic if your cloves are large, use just one, medium cloves
- ½ teaspoon honey
- 3 tablespoons water
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients, except olive oil, in a blender or food processor container. Blend or process till smooth. Remove to a bowl and stir olive oil in by hand. Serve with crudites, crackers, pita chips, etc.
- If, after being refrigerated, the dip is too thick, it can be thinned with a bit of water.
Notes
- * Tahini is an everyday product at Middle Eastern markets and is becoming more and more common at larger grocery stores but you can also purchase it online (this is a super buy, 2 large jars for 10.49 - and free shipping if you have Amazon Prime). Once you've opened tahini, store it in the refrigerator to keep it from getting rancid.
- ** Neufchâtel cheese will usually be found right next to the cream cheese in the dairy section of the grocery store. It's lower in fat and has a slightly higher moisture content. If you can't find it or don't want to run out and buy it, cream cheese will work just fine.
