Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (15.5 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained (reserve liquid) and rinsed
½ cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes (not oil-packed)
3 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup olive oil
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Grind the garbanzo beans, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, basil, and Parmesan cheese together in a food processor for 15 seconds.
