This recipe was Pinterest inspired.

1 small avocado 
1/4 apple cider vinegar

1tablespoon black sesame seeds. 
Mix together in blender/food processor.

Hummus Dip

I had some leftover chickpeas (from a meal I had cooked for my son a few days ago) so I decided to make some hummus. I found a really simple recipe (http://allrecipes.com/recipe/real-hummus) that I tweaked a bit since I didn't have all the listed ingredients. The end result was a delicious, creamy, hummus that I used as a dip for my broccoli and carrot melody.  

Ingredients
1 cup of chickpeas 
1 garlic clove
4 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon coconut oil
Drizzle a little honey
