I love this festive idea for a Halloween food table!
We created a delicious tahini-free hummus, substituting cashew butter made in the NutraMilk for tahini, because for some, tahini has that touch of bitterness that not everybody loves and cashew has a wonderful nutty and slightly sweet flavor that is perfect for hummus. Enjoy!
