What to dip into Buffalo Chickpea Dip
We all have our favorite dippers, you really can’t go wrong! Tortilla chips are great obviously, but this dip also loves veggies. Carrot sticks and celery sticks are perfect! Or use this homemade naan bread!
Can I make this ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can blend this up and place in the fridge (covered) for 5 days.
What’s the difference between chickpea dip and hummus?
Hummus is made with sesame paste and tahini, giving it an earthy flavor. This chickpea dip does not contain sesame paste or tahini, it has a similar texture but not the earthy notes!

You listed onion powder twice. Is it supposed to be something else?
