Roasted carrots, za’atar seasoning, cumin, and tahini make this a sweet, earthy, and creamy dip that’s a great low-FODMAP alternative to chickpea-based hummus. Roasting the carrots brings out their natural sweetness and makes them tender enough to blend. The dip can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to one week.

Well seasoned
Za’atar, a Middle Eastern spice blend of white sesame seeds, dried thyme, and sumac, gives dips, dressings, breads, soups, and meats a fragrant and herbaceous note. It’s worth having it in your pantry; you’ll soon be looking to add it to everything!
