Chickpea Dip with Vegetables

Appetizers logo-5aday_small02
Serves 6

This is an official 5 A Day recipe, providing six people with one and a half servings of vegetables each.

This more-heathful-than-hummus dip, with its colorful vegetable salad on top, partners well with pita bread and is great for a summer picnic or other party.


Ingredients
1 12.5-oz. can chickpeas, drained and rinsed well
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3 drops hot pepper sauce
2 cucumbers, peeled, seeded and diced
¼ red onion, diced
1 cup plain low fat yogurt (equivalent to one 8 oz. container of yogurt)
½ tablespoon olive oil
1 carrot, grated
2 Roma tomatoes, finely chopped


Directions
Blend chickpeas, yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, and hot sauce in a blender until smooth. Transfer dip to a shallow serving bowl, and pile the colorful vegetables on top, leaving an outer rim of dip to be seen. Serve with pita bread or toasted wheat bread triangles.
