Sweet Pea Mockamole

by Beth K. » Wed Jan 02, 2008 2:09 pm

Well, I tried this the other night and it's actually pretty decent. It's kind of a mix between guacamole and hummus. Inexpensive and pretty tasty. I served it with restaurant style tortilla chips.

Sweet Pea Mockamole:
* 1 cup frozen green peas, thawed and drained
* 1 teaspoon ground cumin
* 3 tablespoons chopped onion
* 1 large clove garlic, chopped
* 1 tablespoon lemon juice
* 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
* salt and ground black pepper to taste


DIRECTIONS

1. Combine the peas, cumin, onion, and garlic in the container of a food processor or blender. Process until smooth. Add lemon juice and olive oil, and process just to blend. Taste and season with red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Blend for just a few more seconds, and transfer to a serving bowl. Serve with chips, crackers, or fresh veggies.

I haven't tried it yet but I just got a recipe for a similar item that is made with edamame instead of peas. When I get around to making it it I'll post the recipe if it turns out to be a keeper.
