This was something new for me and I really enjoy the chickpea and walnut blend. It does make quite a bit. I actually used it for dinner and spread it on a Moroccan seasoned grilled chicken breast and served with a side salad and a green bean carrot mix. All in all quite tasty and healthy. Thank you.
