Steps:
- 1. Place garbanzo beans in a food processor. Pulse to desired consistancy (the more you pulse, the finer the consistancy). I like it with small pieces of beans. If it seems too dry, add a teaspoon or so of the reserved liquid. (No food processor? Mash the beans with a fork)
- 2. Place beans in a small bowl. Add rest of ingredients and stir to combine. For a creamier texture, add a little more mayonnaise.
- 3. Adjust seasoning and serve. Great on a bun with lettuce and tomato.
ARTICHOKE AND TUNA PANINI WITH GARBANZO BEAN SPREAD
Steps:
- For the Garbanzo Bean Spread
- Combine all the ingredients in a food processor. Pulse until the mixture is smooth. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
- To Make the Panini
- Combine the black olives, olive oil, salt, pepper, tuna, and artichokes in a bowl and toss gently to mix.
- Lay out the sliced baguettes. Spread both halves of the baguettes with the garbanzo bean spread. Spoon the tuna mixture onto the bottom half of each sandwich and top with the arugula. Close up the sandwiches. Wrap one end of each sandwich in parchment paper to make it easier to eat, if you like.
GARLIC GARBANZO BEAN SPREAD
I wanted to try something besides hummus with garbanzo beans. I wasn't sure how the olive oil would taste (I kept wanting to add tahini instead), but it's very good. This would be a great after school snack because it's quick to prepare and healthy. You could also eat on bread like a sandwich.

MEDITERRANEAN SMASHED CHICKPEAS
You smash half the chickpeas in this recipe to make a spread, sort of a warm rustic hummus enhanced with garlic cumin and hot pepper, along with a liberal drizzle of olive oil. You can use either freshly cooked dried beans or canned chickpeas (also known as garbanzo beans), though freshly cooked is always preferable. Tuck some into a pita for a vegetarian sandwich or serve as a dip to eat with bread and olives; a dollop of minty yogurt and a drizzle of tahini sauce make nice additions.

Steps:
- Put 3 tablespoons olive oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, season with salt and pepper, and cook gently until softened, about 10 minutes. Raise heat to medium-high. Add garlic, cumin, red pepper flakes and celery. Stir to combine let sizzle without browning for 1 minute.
- Add chickpeas and let them heat through. With a potato masher or wooden spoon, crush about half the beans. Stir well, taste and adjust seasoning. Add 1/2 cup water (or bean cooking liquid if you have it) and let mixture simmer briskly for a minute or two. Stir in lemon juice and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Serve warm in pita or as a dip or side dish. Garnish with quartered eggs, accompanied by minted yogurt and tahini sauce, if desired.
THE VERY BEST HUMMUS / NO TAHINI GARBANZO BEAN SPREAD
If you've never liked hummus that's because you only bought that yucky store bought "stuff". Stay away from that and serve this on nice warm crusty bread and watch everyone's faces in delight! I always add more lemon juice, garlic, and salt to my tastes.

Tips:
- Soak the garbanzo beans overnight or for at least 8 hours before cooking. This will help them cook more evenly and reduce the cooking time.
- Use a food processor or blender to make the spread. This will help create a smooth and creamy consistency.
- Add more or less garlic depending on your personal preference. If you like a lot of garlic flavor, add up to 4 cloves. If you prefer a milder flavor, start with 2 cloves.
- Taste the spread and adjust the seasonings as needed. Add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to taste.
- Serve the spread immediately or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
