Chick Pea Addiction

Ok...we all have that one friend. The friend that makes you giggle whether or not she knows she's being funny. This friend of mine is hilarious. She has a witty, dry sense of humour and she is seriously one of the best cooks I know. 

This girlfriend of mine used to make a chick pea dip that she served with nachos. I would stand by the bowl and shovel it into my mouth, party after party. Anytime I was heading to her house, I knew I was going to be the embarrassing girl at the back of the room stuffing my face with chick peas. I have no defences against this dip or salad, as I now call it. I'm weak in it presence. Which is fine, because it's actually pretty healthy. 

Years ago, I begged her for the recipe. I now make it almost weekly. I serve it over spinach, arugula, eat it with nachos, throw it into a soup, mix it in with rice and use it as a side. It's delicious, simple to make and lasts all week in the refrigerator. You can keep it in a baking dish and reheat it again and again. Have I mentioned I love this dish? So delicious, so versatile!
