													This Roasted Tomato-Basil hummus is to die for. Roasted tomatoes and garlic paired with olive oil and fresh basil, this is summertime in a bowl.

                                Ingredients
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
 - 1 15 ounces can chickpeas drained, rinsed & shelled
 - 2/3 cup fresh basil
 - 1 tablespoon Tahini
 - 1 garlic clove
 - 1/2 lemon juiced
 - salt & pepper
 
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
 - Slice the tomatoes in half, and toss them with a little olive oil.
 - Roast for 10-15 minutes until softened.
 - In a food processor, combine shelled chickpeas, tomatoes, 1 tbsp olive oil, basil, tahini, garlic, lemon juice.
 - Blend until almost smooth, then taste. Add salt and pepper (about 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper)
 - Continue to blend until thoroughly smooth.
 - Garnish with extra tomatoes, basil and a drizzle of olive oil.
 - Devour.
 
Notes
- What to do with leftovers
 - Store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
 - Substitutions/Additions
 - Sun dried tomatoes also work well in this recipe. They are a stronger flavor and will give off less liquid than the roasted tomatoes, so be prepared to use a little extra liquid from the chickpea can, or olive oil.
 - If you don’t have canned chickpeas (aka garbanzo beans), you can obviously cook the chickpeas from scratch if you have them dried.
