Directions
In our local newspaper there was a piece about a new cookbook, *Looneyspoons* by Janet and Greta Podleski. Low fat, but really not low enough for this group, at least in the recipes they shared, but could be easily adapted I think. Also there are meat based recipes in the book. The following is something I'm going to try, adjusting for fatfree.
Combine all ingredients in a blender or food processor and process until smooth. Chill for at least 1 hour before serving. Serve with pita. Makes 1½ cups.
Comments from the authors: *This recipe is a creamy, garlicky dip made of lean beans that is similar to hummus, but lower in fat. and make it once and everyone will be begging you to make it again, it is a recipe that really gets around.*
