  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
  --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1                can  garbanzo beans -- (15 oz) drained (reserve small amount of liquid)
    1                jar  marinated artichoke hearts -- (6.5 oz) drained and rinsed well
    1              pinch  cumin
    1              pinch  pepper
                          olive oil -- small amount to moisten (garlic infused if you have it)
  
  Mix all ingredients in a small food processor, including the beans liquid.
  (I use a Magic Bullet, which isn't near as cool as the infomercials made
  it out to be.) Add olive oil in small amounts at a time, mixing after
  each, until it is a nice smooth texture. Serve room temperature or chilled
  with pita bread, crackers or rice chips.
  
  Makes around 1 1/2 cups (6 one-quarter cup servings)
  
  ChupaNote: I added 2 T. freshly squeezed lemon, and about 2 T. canola oil.
  If the artichoke hearts are packed in a good vinaigrette, you could use
  that. I used a good deal more cumin, and a fair amount of Aleppo red
  pepper. Some minced fresh jalapeno adds a nice bit of heat as well.
  Without tahini, I wouldn't really call this hummus. But its a very tasty
  garbanzo artichoke dip. Garnish with kalamata olives, a little minced
  parsley, and some more Aleppor red pepper for color.
