For the hummus
Directions
Place the chickpeas and the next 5 ingredients into a food processor and blend until smooth.
In a dry sauté pan, add the pine nuts and toast them watching and stirring so that they don’t burn.
In a clear 9x13 dish, spread the hummus evenly across the bottom. Beginning with the pine nuts, layer them and the next 7 ingredients. Sprinkle with the cilantro and serve with the pita chips.
