Humus My Way With Pita Points

This serves a big enough bowl for a party. Cut the recipe in half for home use.

3 cans garbanzo beans
1 onion, diced
Small jar of roasted red peppers, chopped or julienned
1/2 cup chopped chives
1/4 cup salsa
1/4 cup dried tomatoes
Salt to taste

Using a food processor or blender, put the beans in (with the juice) and process until smooth and creamy.
Place into a large mixing bowl.
Add the rest of the ingredients and stir well. It'll be kind of chunky.

Get one package of Pita Bread
Cut apart the circles of bread, run a knife around the edges.
Stack and then cut into 8 wedges (half, then halve those, then halve those)
Separate the wedges
Brush lightly with olive oil
Sprinkle lightly with salt

Place in a warmed oven (300 degrees). Keep an eye on them and they're done when they have toasted a bit.
Remove from oven
Allow to cool

Serve with the humus.
