Vegan Baba Ganoush Without Tahini Recipe

Baba ganoush is a roasted eggplant dip popular in the mediterranean and middle eastern cuisine, that is traditionally vegan and gluten-free. Many recipes include tahini as an ingredient, but you can make it without tahini. There are myriad local and regional variations of how to do it; there's not really one right or wrong way to prepare this dish. The only truly essential ingredient in baba ganoush is eggplant, which is roasted to achieve the dish's signature smoky taste. Everything else varies from recipe to recipe. This baba ganoush recipe has no oil and no tahini, making it a fat-free vegetarian and vegan appetizer or dip that you can enjoy anytime. In addition, all of the ingredients are naturally gluten-free, but you will probably want to read the ingredients on your onion powder carefully to see if there are any gluten-containing hidden additives. Serve it with some wedges of fresh pita bread, or pita chips.
