Ingredients

  • 2 cups green peas

  • 1 cup cooked garbanzo beans
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh basil
  • ¼ cup chopped green onions
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 - 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Throw everything in a food processor or blender and run that shit until the dip is kinda smooth.
  2. Taste and add more lemon juice or whatever the fuck you think it is missing.
  3. Serve at room temperature or let it chill in the fridge for a bit. Best served the day its made.
  4. Serve it with some cut up veggies or bread, whatever dip delivery device you've got. It's also a kickass sandwich spread.

Notes

  • These can be fresh, blanched green peas or defrosted frozen peas. We used frozen and it tasted legit.
  • 3 Tbsp of lemon seems a bit much for us, but this could be because we use it as a guacamole substitute when we haven't been shopping or they are out of season and hideously expensive.
  • We use a whole can of chickpeas, its around 1.25 cups, and remember to make something stupid with the aquafaba...
