A great variation on the beloved hummus. Must have with the pita chips as the flavors were born to mingle. The pita chips cooked in my oven in 10 minutes, so you might want to periodically check that yours aren't burning. I added cilantro because. well, because I love it. Why else would I? ;o) Shamelessly stolen from The Soyfoods Council. 9 (sat 0. 6g, mono 2. 2g, poly1. 9g); PROTEIN 5. 6g; CARD 20. 3g; FIBER 2. 2g: CHOL 0mg; IRON 1. 5mg; SODIUM 268mg; CALC 48mg.
