Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups cooked garbanzo beans or 2 cups cannellini beans, 1/4 to 1/2 cup liquid reserved
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup basil leaves
3 tbsp olive oil
5 tsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp salt
pepper
1 pinch cayenne
sundried tomato flour tortillas or jalapeno flour tortilla
olive oil

Directions:

In a blender or food processor combine beans and 4 tablespoons of reserved liquid and the rest of the ingredients, except the tortillas and olive oil.
Cover and blend until nearly smooth.
Add a little more liquid if mixture seems stiff.
Lightly oil a cookie sheet or two.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Cut the tortillas into 8-10 wedges and brush with olive oil.
Bake on the cookie sheets for about 5-8 minutes or just until lightly colored and crisp.
Serve the spread with the tortillas and some celery, carrot sticks and scallions for dipping.
