Special Extra

Serve this flavourful dip with assorted fresh vegetables, such as red pepper strips, broccoli florets and baby carrots, in addition to the crackers.

Use Your Microwave

If time is short, use your microwave to cook the sweet potato. Do not cut potato into cubes. Prick whole potato several times with sharp knife or fork. Microwave on HIGH 4 to 6 min. or until potato is tender. Cut potato in half; scoop out flesh. Process flesh in food processor with remaining dressing, chickpeas and lemon juice as directed. Serve with crackers.
