Hummus

1 bag chick peas/garbanzo beans Diced sweet onions Olive oil Clove garlic Red bell pepper Balsamic vinegar Pickled jalapeños Paprika Cumin Ancho chile powder New Mexico chili powder Season Salt Ground white pepper Tahini Juice of 1-2 lemons or limes (depends on your preference) Optional -fresh herbs as desired. I like to use cilantro with lime and jalapeños, or basil with lemon sometimes. Soak cleaned peas overnight in cool water. Rinse and drain. Add water again with salt to cook pease. Bring to boil, then reduce to simmer for 2 hours. Drain and cool peas. Place cooled peas into food processor. Add juice from lemon/lime, vinegar, and olive oil. Add some of all desired spices. Add tahini, onions, garlic and a few red pepper slices. Process and taste until it is how you like it!
