INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 425. Slice 1/4" off top of head of garlic. Wrap garlic in
foil. In small baking dish, roast garlic until it turns buttery soft, 30
to 40 mins. Let stand 10 mins. to cool. Meanwhile, in serving bowl, mix
chickpeas with basil and vinegar. Set aside. When garlic is cool enough to
handle, squeeze out each clove into bean mixture. Stir well to coat beans.
Toss with diced tomatoes. Season with cumin, salt, and pepper. Serve at
room temperature. (Excessive salt?)
