This is a great item for a group setting or to make for yourself. It easily stores in the refrigerator for up to a week but I doubt it will last that long because its so tasty...
Makes 1 pt
2-16oz cans of Organic Chickpeas(garbanzo beans) or non-organic Goya
8oz of Tahini
1- med lemon
3-cloves of garlic minced
1 tsp of cumin
1 tsp of sea salt
touch of fresh ground pepper
2 tbsp of EVOO
1/2cup of water
1 tbsp of paprika
This works best with a food processor. I prefer to slightly cook my garlic so its aromatic.
Procedure: Drain chickpeas and wash them in a colander. Dump them into the food processor and add a little bit of the water to the mix and blend until puree. Mix in tahini and continue to blend. Add garlic,paprika, lemon, cumin, salt, pepper and olive oil. Continue to blend together. You can add more water to make a smoother consistency.
Serve in a nice large bowl. To garnish add some kalamta olives on the top and a little bit of EVOO with a sprinkle of paprika. Best serves with fresh pita or pita chips.
Serve in a nice platter with

What about a little credit to the little people who slaved for hours over the mixer and cut all the cebollas?

Yes, I should thank my understudy, David, my brother along with the whole crew that pulled this thing together
