Introduction

By using low sodium stock or broth, it cuts way down on the fat. The little bit of EVOO really makes a difference in the taste. This recipe takes me 15 minutes to make and I store it in an air tight container and use it as a veggie dip throughout the week! FANTASTIC!

Ingredients

    1 can garbanzo (chickpeas), drained & rinsed
    10 cloves of garlic
    1-2 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO)
    Fresh or dried basil
    1 c. low sodium chicken or vegetable stock

Directions

Take all 10 cloves of garlic, lay them on a piece of tin foil, pour about 1 Tbsp EVOO onto garlic cloves and close tin foil. Bake at 375 for about 10-15 minutes until roasted.

In a food processor, add drained & rinsed beans, 1 Tbsp EVOO, and basil. Once roasted, add garlic. Pulse. Add stock to desired consistency. (I used about 2/3 cup stock and it was about the consistency of peanut butter which is perfect for me.)
