Mediterranean-influenced dips like hummos (pureed chick peas) and baba ghanouj (roasted eggplant) are an excellent way to start a meal or enjoy a light snack.
Hummos
Pareve spread made of pureed chick peas (garbanzo beans).
Hummos with Roasted Red Peppers
Roasted red peppers add heightened Mediterranean flavor to this delicious spread.
Hummos with Spicy Orange Flavor
Another variation on traditional hummos--this one adds hot citrus and garlic flavor.
Babaghanouj with Cumin
Straightforward recipe for a traditional mashed eggplant salad. Plenty of suggested variations, too.
Chopped Beef Liver
Beef liver imparts a different texture and much stronger flavor than chicken liver...it's a matter of opinion, and both camps have their adherents.
