Chick Pea/Roasted Red Pepper Dip


This is an appetizer from one of my favorite blogs. It comes from Gina's Weight Watcher Recipes. I highly recommend that you check out Gina's blog for some healthy meals. I look forward to posting more of her great recipes that we have enjoyed. I brought this dip to enjoy with friends while watching a Patriots game. The colorful presentation of the veggies combined with the red hint of the dip made it very appealing!

You will need:
*1 15 oz can garbanzo beans, drained
*1 roasted red pepper (I used a jarred pepper)
* 2 tbsp fresh parsley leaves
* 2 cloves garlic
* 2 tbsp sesame oil
* juice of 1 lemon
* salt and fresh pepper

1) Combine all ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth. (You can add water if it is too thick)
2) Serve with fresh vegetables such as peppers, cucumber, celery, carrots, and any other vegetable you enjoy.
