Method For the houmous, whizz the drained chickpeas (reserve the water), olive oil, tahini paste, the grated zest and juice of the lemon, crushed garlic and salt and pepper in a food processor, adding more chickpea water if it's too thick. Place all the tapenade ingredients in a food processor or blender (I used a vitamix).

  3. Transfer to a bowl or container, cover, and chill.

  5. Remove the sheet from the oven and place the toasted slices on a platter. Top with the tapenade, garnish, and serve. [I use tomato slices for a garnish that can also be used to top the crostini bread]
