Vegetable Bean Dip

Vegetable Bean Dip
roasted eggplant pieces, peeled and cooled
cooked or canned chickpeas
tahnini paste
diced red pepper
diced tomato
diced onion or red onion
diced cucumber
garlic cloves
fresh lemon juice
olive oil
minced parsley/cilantro/chives
spices - paprika, cayenne pepper, cumin, etc.
salt and pepper

Purée all together until smooth, taste and add more of whatever you wish, then adjust seasonings. Make it as smooth or as chunky as you like.

Another idea is to simply combine several all ready prepared condiments (either boughten or homemade), such as hummus, salsa, baba ganoush, pesto, and tzatziki. 

This is simply a quick dip I came up with to use leftovers - just blend everything together. It works!
