This easy baba ganoush recipe comes together with eggplant, lemon juice, garlic, and tahini. It's creamy, flavorful, and makes for a healthy appetizer or snack!Y'all know I'm alll about delicious dips over here! We love our hummus but I decided to switch it up a bit. Hello, baba ganoush!I first had baba ganoush years ago at a small moroccan & lebanese cafe in uptown dallas. Both Zack and I were amazed at how tasty the dip was. Especially paired with crunchy veggies and warm pita bread! Even though making hummus has become a weekly occurrence, it took me far too long to finally experiment with homemade baba ganoush.Don't be intimidated by this dip! Simply roast your eggplant in the oven until soft and tender. Then blend in your food processor with lemon juice, garlic, tahini, and salt until creamy.Want more easy dairy-free dip recipes?
