Ingredients
3 cup garbanzos, soaked overnight
1/2 cup lemon juice
Olive oil, to taste
Salt and pepper, to taste
Water, as needed
2/3 cup creamy peanut butter
1 bunch Italian parsley, finely chopped
1 jalapeño, seeds removed, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped

Instructions
Cook garbanzos slowly in water until very soft. They should be very mushy when one is taken and smashed between the fingers. Drain.
In food processor, place all the garbanzos and process with some of the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper, and water.
Process until smooth. Scoop the mixture into a bowl. Add peanut butter. Stir well and adjust with oil and water for texture, and salt and pepper for taste.
Make topping by combining parsley, jalapeño, and garlic in a small bowl. Cover with extra virgin olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
