Chickpea and Red Pepper Dip

The chickpea isn't a pea at all. It's actually a legume that's rich in protein, zinc and folate. That's your lesson for the day. Now go make some dip.
- 1 (16-oz) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 1 (12-oz) jar roasted red peppers, drained
- 1 (8-oz) container nonfat sour cream
- 1 tsp bottled minced garlic
- ½ tsp salt
- ⅛ tsp pepper
Place all the ingredients in a food processor or blender container and process or blend until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides.
Place dip in a serving bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and chill one hour.

- This dip is delish with breadsticks and crudités.
