Low Carb Tahini Dip. I’m not sure about you, but I can and do eat tahini with a spoon, you know, kind of like you can eat peanut butter or almond butter with a spoon and this tahini dip is no different. It is very garlicy and lemony. The perfect dipping equipment would be a crudite which would include cucumber coins and red, yellow, and orange pepper chips. This couldn’t be much easier to make and can be a great last minute appetizer for company.

- An interesting thing about tahini. It has lots of carbs but is also high in fiber. I use Organic Once Again brand tahini and for 2 T the label says 4g carbs and 4g fiber which would seem to make it a zero sum carb food yet in my nutritional calculator it comes out with lots more carbs than fiber and I am unable to specify the actual tahini brand.
- I do know this: Tahini is one of healthiest things you can eat.
