Garbanzo-Stuffed Mini Peppers

A pretty two bite snack with all the crunch of a pita chip w/o the extra carbs and calories:
(makes 32)

1 t. cumin seeds (thanks again, P&P)
1 can garbanzo beans, rinsed and rained well*
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
3 T. water
3 T. apple cider vinegar
1/4 t. kosher* salt
16 miniature sweet peppers, halved lengthwise and de-seeded
Additional fresh cilantro leaves

In a small dry skillet, toast cumin seeds over med. heat 1-2 mins. or until aromatic, stirring frequently. Transfer to a food processor. Add garbanzo beans, cilantro, water, vinegar, and salt; pulse until blended. Spoon into pepper halves. Top with additional cilantro. Refrigerate until serving.

Love,
