This is a very basic recipe for the popular garbanzo and sesame seed pate. Vary the flavor by adding a few mint leaves, a little fresh ginger, or red pepper flakes. I make it in a food processor now, but I used to make it by putting the garbanzo beans through a ricer.
Ingredients
- 2 cans garbanzo beans , 15 ounce
- 0.5 cups roasted tahini
- 0.25 cups lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest , minced
- 2 cloves garlic
- 0.25 cups packed flat leaf parsley
- 0.25 cups chopped green onions
- salt to taste
- ground black pepper to taste
Instructions

Place garbanzo beans, tahini, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, parsley, and green onion in the bowl of a food processor. Blend until smooth, adding water if the mixture is too thick. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Mini Chocolate Cupcakes
I'm very excited about this mini chocolate cupcake recipe. It saves time, money, and most of all, butter! I love using butter for cupcakes but it's pricey and you may notice your cupcake is a little dense if it's sitting out for a while. This recipe contains extra-virgin olive oil and no coffee. Use good quality cocoa powder because I do notice a difference when using generic. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do! Happy baking!
