Ingredients
  

  • 1 can chickpeas rinsed and drained well
  • 2 red bell peppers
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 cloves fresh garlic
  • 1.5 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup tehina sesame seed paste
  • 1 packed tablespoon sun-dried tomatoes

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees farenheit.
  2. Wash peppers and remove stems and insides.
  3. Cut each pepper into three pieces and face downward onto parchment-paper-lined baking sheet.
  4. Bake for 30 minutes or until skin is seriously browning.
  5. Remove from oven and place in a bowl, then cover the bowl for 20 minutes or so to help the skins separate from the flesh.
  6. Remove skin as best you can (don't drive yourself crazy over this).
  7. Put all ingredients into food processor and blend very well until very creamy. This might take a few minutes.
  8. Enjoy!
