Want some hummus but don't have any chickpeas on hand? No problem, some black-eyed peas fill in nicely. Try it with pita chips or as a healthy dip for carrots and celery.

1 can (15 ounce size) black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained
1/4 cup tahini
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 cloves garlic
1/4 cup water
salt and pepper, to taste
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
chopped fresh parsley
Combine the black-eyed peas, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, water, and seasonings in a food processor. Process until smooth.
Place the hummus in a bowl and cover. Chill for 1 hour or until ready to serve.
Just before serving, sprinkle with the fresh parsley. Serve with pita wedges or tortilla chips.
