Lemon Herb Chickpea Bruschetta
Preparation
STEP 1
The night before cooking, soak the chickpeas. Place the chickpeas in a large 4-quart stockpot and cover with 2-3 inches of water. Cover, and allow to soak overnight.
STEP 2
The next day, drain and rinse the chickpeas and place them back in the stockpot. Cover with water by 3 inches and bring to a boil. Lower to a simmer, cover and simmer for about 60 minutes until tender. Drain, and let cool.
STEP 3
Combine chickpeas, tomatoes, basil, parsley, and Parmesan cheese and mash the chickpeas slightly.
STEP 4
In a separate small bowl, whisk together garlic, lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, red chili pepper flakes, cumin and salt and pepper to taste.
STEP 5
Combine chickpea mixture with dressing and spoon onto baguette slices. Garnish with more Parmesan. Serve immediately.
