One of my fave ways to eat baba ganoush is with celery and carrot sticks. I love the crunch mixed with the smooth and creamy texture of the dip. It’s definitely satisfying. Despite its hard-to-pronounce name, baba ganoush is super easy to make and doesn’t require that many ingredients. You’ll Go Whoosh Over This Baba Ganoush! True story, bro 🙂
