  • 2 cups chickpeas canned or cooked fresh, liquid reserved
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • juice from 1 lemon
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup gorgonzola cheese doesn't need to be exact, just eyeball it.
  • fresh ground pepper

Instructions

  • In a food processor, combine all ingredients.
  • Slowly add the reserved chickpea liquid until you reach the desired consistency. That amount is typically between 1/4-1/2 cup of liquid.

Notes

For cooking dried chickpeas in a pressure cooker, the ratio is 1 cup dried chickpeas to 2 cups of water. Add a tsp of salt. Cook for 20-25 minutes stovetop. Using the Instant Pot, select the "bean" setting.
