Baba Ganoush Dip

by | May 24, 2016 | Recipes

Not tried baba ganoush? You must. This middle eastern aubergine condiment is a life saving hummus alternative for those on the paleo, GAPS or SCD diet, and for those who aren’t on any particular protocol, it’s a delicious low starch, grain and pulse free option that will satisfy all your dipping needs. It’s also very nutrient dense – aubergines are high in vitamin K, folate, potassium, manganese, B1, B3, B6 and copper as well as being an excellent source of fibre and the tahini is rich in calcium and magnesium. Try this with veg crudités, alongside your falafels or as a scrumptious savoury spread..
