Ingredients
  

  • 2 ripe avocados*
  • 1 can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup Greek Yogurt
  • 1/2 cup red onion, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
  • 1 Jalapeno, diced
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 garlic clove, minced (or 1/2 teaspoon of toum*)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2-1 teaspoon cumin, depending on how spicy you’d like it to be

Method
 

  1. Chop jalepeno, red onion, and cilantro.
  2. Set aside a tablespoon or two of the red onion and the drained chickpeas (so the dip will have some small chunks in it).
  3. In a food processor mix together all other ingredients.
  4. Stir in the extra red onion and chickpeas then garnish with extra cilantro.
  5. Serve the dip with crackers, chips, pita bread, pita chips, or raw vegetables.

Notes

Avocados are ripe when you can gently press into the skin it should slightly give but not be mushy. If you would like to use toum (a Lebanese garlic condiment) instead of garlic you can find it at Middle Eastern stores or in Salt Lake City from Laziz Foods at Caputo's or Harmon's.
