Ingredients

    1 pkg dried chickpeas (1lb)
    4 cloves garlic pressed
    1/3 Cup extra virgin olive oil
    1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
    2/3 C water
    1/3 C Tahini (sesame paste)
    2 tsp. salt
    1/4 cup chopped fresh red pepper
    3 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Directions

To cook dried chipeas: Rinse dried peas. Cook covered on medium heat in 1 quart of water until peas are tender. About 2 hours. Drain peas and cool.
Put all ingredients in to a food processor and blend until well mixed. Best served chilled after the dip has had a chance to sit for several hours so that the flavors blend.
Serve with fresh vegies or whole wheat pita bread.

*Tahini can be found in most grocery stores in the mediterranean food section. Usually in a glass jar resembling a nut spread. Be sure to stir the Tahini before measuring as oil settles on the top.
