Wow, thanks for your post to help us learn about great recipees. I have seen your other threads and their all very useful and high quality. Just wondering what are tahini, cumin, and paprika? Also do we need the pepper. I don't like really spicy things.

I agree Alison, I've seen many of your other threads and they are all top notch. Alison, you already asked about paprika so hopefully someone will answer on that soon and I don't know what tahini and cumin are either. Pepper is great in moderation!

Nice. I am pretty sure as you guys have asked in your other posts that paprika is a spice so I think it will work well. Thanks for your post and I think it'll be great, have to try it out and thanks again!
