Hummus Recipe


HUMMUS

I wanted to share one of my all time favorite snacks with y’all today and how I make it three different ways.. hummus is so versatile and QUICK to make. I use it for spreads on tortilla wraps, to dip my veggies and crackers in..its full of protein and its so so delicious!!! Here are a few different ways that I make ours.


1. Classic Hummus

What you will need is 1 can of garbanzo beans ( rinsed)
tahini sauce
olive oil
juice of one lemon
salt and pepper
1/3 cup of water

In your food processor pour your garbanzo beans, 1 LARGE table spoon of tahini sauce ( more if you love it), about 3 liberal glugs of olive oil, your juice of the lemon, and a liberal amount of salt and pepper and water. Blend and then season to taste.  garnish with smoked paprika if desired

How EASY?!



2.  Roasted Red pepper hummus

You will need 1 red bell pepper
garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper, one can of garbanzo beans, juice of 1 lemon, tahini sauce, and 1/3 cup of water

start by roasting your red pepper at 450 degrees..roast until blistered and soft.
then in your food processor repeat the steps just like the classic hummus except add your roasted red pepper to the processor. 



garnish with chopped red bell pepper!

3. Kalamata olive Hummus

In this hummus you will include everything in the classic hummus except you will add 4 kalamata olives to the processor.. and one clove of garlic.



Garnish with Kalamata olives and fresh feta cheese

Sweet Potato Cauliflower Mash




Sweet Potato Cauliflower Mash


Sweet potatoes were one of the very first foods I introduced to Jax. He was a BIG fan...since he loves them so much I usually try to incorporate ( AKA SNEAK) other veggies in with them so that he will just gobble them right up! A lot of times when I do a combo meal I will add some protein like chicken or turkey to a veggie to disguise it and it seems to work really well:) 

I love that you can make cauliflower the consistency of potato so these two really mix well together!!!

Shopping List:

1 head of cauliflower cut into florets

2 sweet potatoes peeled and chunked

Procedure:

Steam ( or BOIL) both sets of veggies until soft and tender

add about 2 tablespoons of butter, a little S&P and blend in the baby bullet 

If you baby likes cheese or you have introduced dairy go ahead and add some organic skim mozzarella cheese


ENJOY! :)
