INSTRUCTIONS
(From "Reader's Digest Live Longer Cookbook: 500 Delicious recipes for Healthy Living." May, 1993. $30). In a food processor or blender, whirl the chick peas, yogurt, garlic, water, oil, lemon juice, cumin, red pepper, and salt for 1 minute or until smooth. Set aside. Cut the florets off the broccoli and peel and slice the stems 1/2" thick. Arrange the broccoli in a steamer or colander and set over boiling water in a large saucepan. Cover and steam for 6-7 minutes or until crisp-tender. Transfer to a warm serving dish. Spoon the sauce over the broccoli and toss to coat. Serve with roast lamb or chicken. Preparation time: 10 minutes. Cooking time: 6 minutes. From Tuscon area newspapers, 1994, 3rd quarter, courtest Mike Orchekowski.
