    My 1st attempt I am please not knowing what to expect! However, I will add my take on this recipe so results are more desirable this is all preference and taste. Keep in mind the directions and recipe didn’t mention certain canned beans will have salt in them and the reserve so you will certainly have sodium levels you may not want or like. Also I find its better to not add any reserve liquid to the blend beforehand to attain thicker pastey dip …you can always add the 3-4 tbsp reserve and pulse that into the mix.

    You could try natural peanut butter. Just be aware that it’ll change the taste.

    Can you substitute sesame seeds for tahini?

    He’s Probably Allergic To peanuts As Well. Just Leave The tahini Out. it Won’t Make A Huge Difference. There’s Really No Good Substitute For tahini.

    SO YUMMY! It’s very sweet. Tastes like it has sugar in it but it’s just the peppers. I used the dry beans so it cost peanuts.
