Makes about 16 1/4 cup servings.Place all ingredients in bowl of food processor and blend until smooth. (You can use sesame seeds in place of already made tahini when made in the Vita-Mix.) Serve with pita bread triangles, fresh veggies or use as a sandwich spread. You may use more or less garlic to suit your taste. The regular recipe uses 3 times the olive oil, but this has a really good, authentic flavor! If you don't have lime juice, you can make it with just lemon juice, but the resulting flavor seems to be missing something.Number of Servings: 16Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SCRAPPYGRAMMY.
