I made up a batch of this spread this morning. Thinking of having it mixed into rice or couscous for lunch 🙂 You can sub in fresh garlic and Jalapeno, I used the dried I had on hand. I get dried Jalapeno from Harmony House Foods. Measure out 2 Tbsp dried and soak with 2 Tbsp cool water for 15 minutes then use. The garlic can be added in with everything else.
