It’s no secret that snacking is one of my favorite hobbies (right after tabling and online window shopping!).That’s why I’m super-excited to share this tasty chip and dip combo that’s perfect for when you have the munchies after school. It’s super-easy and cheap to make, and it even has a spicy kick to it. I mean, if that combination doesn’t scream perfection, I don’t know what does!

Try this deelish chipotle hummus! :D

  • 2 Tbsp. tahini
  • 1/4 cup lime juice

Instructions
  1. In a blender or food processor, combine the garbanzo beans, water, tahini, lime juice, and olive oil. Blend for 2 minutes on low until smooth.

You can also use this as a spread for sandwiches or wraps! :)

    I have always lived in Los Angeles but my family and I went to Mexico for my parents wedding. So we came back to LA. I don't like LA but were here already what can I do unless I move out and find my own housing. I have always liked animals and it was til I was like about 14 when I learned about tests they do on animals and I began to explore animal cruelty because I was interested it in it. I have watched videos that just broke my heart so that's why today I'm doing all I can to not buy anything that has harmed an animal and I'm vegetarian .
