I loved this spread, Jen. It is very thick but not so much that it wouldn't spread. I used fresh squeezed lemon juice. The flavors come together well and are very vibrant. Since I have a strange love for lima beans, I will be making this regularly. It is great for lunch or a quick snack. Thanks for posting.

Delicious. This is a wonderful snack or lunch paired with a whole grain pita and some veggies. I love that there is no oil at all. The lemon gave it a wonderful tang and the seasoning was full of all of my favorite flavors. This is another great one Ladypit, thanks for posting. Will make again for sure.
