Ingredients

2 Cups Chickpeas (1) 19 oz. can
2 Tbs Tahini
1 Small Shallot chopped (or 1 clove garlic)
1/2 Cup Sun-dried tomatoes
3 Tbs Lime juice
1 Tbs Freshly grated lime zest
1 Tsp Salt
1/4 Cup Olive oil
1/2 Cup Water or less to facilitate blending

Instructions

Gather your ingredients together.
Drain and rinse the chickpeas in a colander with cold water.
Chop the onion.
Zest the limes.
Juice the limes.
Combine all of the ingredients in a blender or food processor except water and puree until smooth, using a spatula to facilitate.
Adding water as needed until it gets moving.
Blend until smooth and silky.
Transfer to a container or a clean jar and store in the refrigerator.

Notes

If cooking your own chick peas from scratch, use about 3/4 cup of dry beans which should yield the right amount cooked – Simply soak for 8-12 hours, rinse, and boil in water to cover until soft, about 60-75 minutes.
