Hummus happens to be one of my favorite foods. Absolutely yummy and flavorful! A little bit goes a long way and used in lieu of mayonnaise hummus packs a powerful punch. Enjoy my skinny (low fat) recipe.

In a blender:
- add a 15 oz can of garbanzo beans (chick peas) (drained and rinsed)
- juice from 1 large or 2 small lemons (about 1/8 to 1/4 cup if using bottled)
- grated peel

Green fried tomatoes are a Southern treat, and so are fried red tomatoes, and they are really good. Green fried tomatoes make a terrific side dish in the summer at a picnic or in the winter at a family meal.

I am in the process of writing a Squidoo Lens that this treat will be listed on. But until it is done, I wanted to go ahead and share this. The other morning I ran out of Nutrigrain bars and wanted to make something similar. I was reading a couple of different recipes I have but nothing sounded good. So I went into the kitchen and started looking at the ingredients I had on hand

In the last several years, I have become an avid baker, primarily of gourmet biscotti, but also of cookies and cakes. One of the lessons that I have learned by trial and error, and a lot of experimental substitution in my recipes, is that you can get much more depth of flavor in a recipe by using a liqueur instead of an extract for flavor.

All smoked salmon is not created equal, and Jewish smoked salmon, called lox, is not the same as the standard smoked salmon that you get from your regular grocery store. Lox is a Jewish delicacy that is usually eaten on bagels with cream cheese, but can be used in many other recipes.

I enjoy making soups. To make it in the slow cooker is an even bigger bonus. And for it to be healthy on top of that is the biggest bonus of all. Web MD has the recipe on their site. It is actually really really good. And it is not difficult. It is one of my new favorites. I hope you will love it too.

I love Pasta, always have. But I can't say I am really good at it. I usually end up making the same thing over and over. Which is good...but just not thrilling. Here is a recipe even I can make. It is interesting and could be added to or subtracted from in many different ways. But this is the basic alfredo type starter recipe. And the idea of including bacon is intriguing. I think you'll like it.

Admittedly I'm not a huge fan of tofu, although this recipe for Tofu Quiche certainly has me intrigued. Yes I'd even venture to say that because of the mix of delicious ingredients in this vegan main dish this is one that I'd really like to try out. There are two things I'd add because they are my faves in an egg quiche that I make...stone ground brown mustard and a couple of dashes
