Thanks Jen! Let me know if you do :o)
I've never had hummus but would love to try it. What is tahini and where do i find it?
Tahini is ground sesame seeds - it's like a paste or sauce. If your grocery store has a Mediterranean section - you could find it there. I found it above the olives at my local Kroger store.
This looks great, perfect for a party. I think I would definitely go for using the yogurt for consistency, I recently tried greek yogurt and found out that I love it.
