Ingredients:
- 2 cloves garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Monini Fruttato Extra Virgin
Olive Oil
- 1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained,
liquid reserved
- 2 tablespoons tahini paste
- Sea salt and pepper to taste
|
|
Preparation
Place garbanzo beans in a blender (Vita
Mix) with approximately 1 teaspoon reserved liquid.
Process until smooth. Mix in the garlic, tahini
paste, salt and pepper. Blend to desired consistency,
increasing the amount of reserved garbanzo bean
liquid as desired. Chill in the refrigerator until
serving.
This recipe is best served with fresh cut vegetables
such as carrots, peppers, and celery |
Benefits:
Garbanzos (also called chickpeas) are a good source
of cholesterol-lowering fiber, as are most other
beans. In addition to lowering cholesterol, garbanzos'
high fiber content prevents blood sugar levels from
rising too rapidly after a meal, making these beans
an especially good choice for individuals with diabetes,
insulin resistance or hypoglycemia. When combined
with whole grains such as rice, garbanzos provide
virtually fat-free high quality protein. But this
is far from all that garbanzos have to offer. Garbanzos
are an excellent source of the trace mineral, molybdenum,
an integral component of the enzyme sulfite oxidase,
which is responsible for detoxifying sulfites. Sulfites
are a type of preservative commonly added to prepared
foods like delicatessen salads and salad bars. |
