Gluten Free Flatbread with Herbs and Cooked Garbanzo Beans
We have been buying and eating hummus frequently lately. So I decided I should make it myself, by soaking and cooking dry garbanzo beans, which is so much cheaper. But before I could make hummus I had a thought: “Can you make socca with cooked garbanzo beans?” I know, I know, I have a history…
