Organic Black Lentils l Vegan l Kosher No Dairy l No Gluten l No MSG l No Added Sugar

Ah!Zeefa® is the ready-to-eat lentil dip (or spread) made from simple, natural ingredients: Organic Black Lentils Olive Oil Lime Juice Peppers Onions Sea Salt

Ah!Zeefa ® is available in 7 delicious flavors: Hot MediumMild Garlic Curry No Salt AddedLow Fat

Ah!Zeefa ® is a premium product. Heres what you wont find in it: Added Water – many hummus makers add water to their product to bring down cost, diluting their product Lesser Oils – soybean oil, canola oil, vegetable oil… again, to cut costs (and corners) other manufacturers use cheaper oils in their dips. Berhanu uses only pure olive oil. Added Sugar – this flavor crutch is not needed in Ah!Zeefa; our simple, tasty ingredients stand on their own MSG – a widely-used flavor enhancer, to which many people are allergic, is no where to be found in Ah!Zeefa Gluten – another common allergen (found in wheat and other grains) is not used Cholesterol – enjoy Ah!Zeefa knowing it is a cholesterol free food

Many Different, Delicious Ways to Enjoy Ah!Zeefa ® Dip for vegetables and crackers Sandwich spread – instead of mayo! On tacos, gyros, rice cakes and much, much more! On baked potatoes, stuffed mushrooms, avocados, and cherry tomatoes On grilled cheese sandwiches On salads – just thin down Ah!Zeefa with lime juice and olive oil – a healthy replacement for heavy dressings! On pasta with vegetables – gives your dish a boost of protein without the meat With apple slices – surprisingly delicious!

Organic Black Lentils The main ingredient in Ah!Zeefa® is certified organic black lentils, sometimes referred to as Beluga lentils for their resemblance to the exclusive caviar. They are smaller than most other varieties of lentils and hold their shape better when cooked. The Palouse Region of Idaho and Washington state These special lentils are grown in regions of the world where nutrient rich volcanic soil and plentiful rainfall combine for the optimal environment. In North America it is the northwestern U.S. and southwestern Canada where these conditions abound.
