Ingredients

Directions

If using dried chickpeas, soak overnight in water, then drain and rinse them. Then, put the chickpeas in a large saucepan and cover with fresh water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, roughly 40-50 minutes. When done, drain the peas and allow them to cool.
Preheat your oven to 400 F and put the pumpkin on a baking tray with parchment paper. After spraying the pumpkin with olive oil, roast it in the over for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the pumpkin is tender and lightly caramelized.
To make the sun-dried tomato dressing, heat the red wine vinegar and the tomatoes in a saucepan over low heat. Allow the tomatoes to soak in the hot vinegar to soften.
Transfer the softened tomatoes to a blender or food processor and add the remaining ingredients. Process to combine, but be careful not to over process, as you want the texture to remain slightly chunky.
To serve, toss the pumpkin and chickpeas in the dressing and place in individual serving bowls, or on a platter, and then sprinkle with the cilantro or mint.
