Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 1-2 zucchinis (about 26 ounces total, ends trimmed and cut into large chunks)
  • 1/2 cup tahini (see note)
  • 2 cloves garlic (peeled)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
  • Pinch of chili powder

Instruction

  • Steam the zucchini chunks in the microwave or in a steamer basket on the stovetop until the zucchini is translucent and tender. Pour the zucchini into a colander and drain very well.
  • Add the zucchini and all the other ingredients to the bowl of a food processor (I think it would probably be fine processed in a blender, also) and blend until the desired consistency is reached. I like it fairly smooth.
  • Serve at room temperature or chilled with sliced vegetables and pretzels.
