Ingredients
540 mL can of chickpeas4 Tbsp chunky peanut butter2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil2 Tbsp lemon or lime juice (either squeeze half a medium sized fruit, or use the bottled kind)3 crushed garlic cloves
Directions
First, empty your chickpeas into a colander and rinse them well. You can leave them under cold running water while you prepare the rest.

Measure out the rest of the ingredients and add to your blender or food processor. When your chickpeas are well rinsed (it gets a LOT of the salt off them), put them on a plate layered with paper towels and let them dry thoroughly (about 10 minutes).

Once the chickpeas are dry, add to the blender or food processor and blend or process! You don't want it to be runny, so don't over blend it. If you find it too thick, add some water, 1 tsp at a time to the mixture.

Spoon into a bowl, and serve with naan bread, crackers, tortillas, or whatever you like.
