Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Yellow Lentils Uncooked
  • 2 cups Water
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 cup Fresh Cilantro Roughly chopped and tightly packed
  • 3 tablespoons Tahini Paste
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 2 tablespoons Garlic Minced
  • 2 Lime Juiced, large
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons Ground Cumin
  • 1/4-1/2 teaspoon Ground Cayenne Pepper To desired level of spiciness

Instructions
 

  • Combine the lentils, water, and salt in a large pan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, turn the heat down to medium/low and cook until the lentils are very soft, and the water is absorbed, about 40 minutes.
  • Add the cooked lentils into a large food processor, along with all remaining ingredients and blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as necessary.
  • DEVOUR.
