* 1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese or soy substitute
* 1 bunch celery, cleaned and cut into 4 inch pieces

Lo Fat Hummus
Ingredients:

* 1 15 oz can of chickpeas or garbanzo beans, drained (save liquid or use lemon juice)
* 1-2 cloves garlic, crushed
* 1 tablespoon lemon juice
* 1 tablespoon low fat peanut butter
* 1/2 cup plain yogurt
* 1 teaspoon salt

Preparation:
In a food processor combine beans, tahini (if desired), yogurt, garlic, and lemon juice. Blend well. Add salt and cumin and blend to a smooth and creamy dip.

If your hummus is too thick, add a little bit of the liquid from the chickpeas - about a teaspoon at a time. Other ways to thin out hummus is by using warm water, lemon juice or olive oil.
