Green Pea Hummus ---------------- Summary: Add some green peas to a basic hummus. The fresh green peas at Trader Joes work well. Peas give it a bit of sweetness/freshness. Ingredients ----------- * 400 g (15 oz) can of chickpeas - not yet drained (garbanzo beans) * 150 g (1 cup) fresh or frozen peas * 2 tablespoon tahini * 2 teaspoon lemon juice * 1 clove of garlic minced * Pinch of salt and pepper Instructions ------------ 1. Drain the chickpeas over a bowl to collect the liquid (aquafaba), then add the chickpeas to a blender or food processor. 2. Run the frozen peas under hot water to thaw, then also add them to the blender, along with the tahini, lemon juice, garlic salt and pepper as well as 4 tablespoon of the aquafaba. 3. Blend for a few minutes until thick and creamy. You may need to scrape the sides down periodically. Add a little more aquafaba if necessary to get it a thick and creamy consistency.
