Hummus is always a great dip to have! Good for lunch with some vegetables to dip in, good for a spread for a sandwich or a wrap & good as a meal with some add ons! I always like to have some Hummus in my fridge ready to enjoy.

Is it best to use canned chickpeas or chickpeas that you cook yourself? I am often asked that question. I have done both & for the sake of time prefer to use canned chickpeas. Also, to smooth out my Hummus I often add a bit of the Aquafina from the can. (Aquafina is what the liquid in the can of chickpeas is called). There is also many people who like to rub the skin off the chickpeas with a towel, it is suppose to make a smoother Hummus. I have tried this and as it is a peaceful thing to do, I actually never do it! I make a simple quick & easy Hummus.

I love this Hummus Platter.. take a large serving dish, spread some Hummus all over it & top with whatever you want! I topped mine with some crispy oven roasted chickpeas, Kalamata olives, Sliced tomatoes, Cut up cucumber, cut up peppers, Serve with Pita!

Leftover Hummus & an Egg

There is some leftover hummus in the fridge , freshly boiled eggs on the stove, and I’m hungry. My go-to for hard boiled  eggs when I want to put them on bread is mayo, but thinking that the hummus would be good, I mashed up the egg, scooped a heaping teaspoon of hummus in it…

Many people ask me "how did you do that?" "will you show me how?' So I decided to make a blog about what I cook and bake. I am in no way a professional cook, but I love to feed people and try new things as well as making the "old foods" My friends are wonderful cooks, each with their own 'specialty' and i will be having guest cooks here, showcasing their favourite things to cook as well!! I hope you enjoy this blog and maybe decide to make some of these foods yourself! I am always available to answer any questions you might have about anything you see here. Some of my recipes are unique to me but most are not. They are all recipes I have found in a variety of ways, some are old family recipes that date back decades and some are new ones!
