Basic, not a lot of flavor. I am sure this is a good start to good dip. It needs some additions like tomatoes, peppers, etc.

I made this for a gathering at my house. I had 2 other dips but everyone picked this one as their favorite. It was a big hit! Everyone said it reminded them of Lebanese food. It was amazing! I served it not only with baby carrots but also with different colored bell pepper, cucumbers and olive oil bread sticks. I couldn't find black beans and I used red kidney ones instead. I am making this again and again!
