Hummus – The Trilogy
Does that look good or what? This is one seriously creamy hummus with lots of crispy spring onions and fresh, juicy tomatoes. Turned out to be a really good combination. Told you I’d find another variation! You know, the fun part of being in competition with yourself is that you always win. It’s not that I’m a sore loser, I just want to win! This one is special, though. It took me nearly 4…
Hummus Meets Baba Ghanoush
There’s hummus—and I especially love my version with roasted bell peppers and a slight hint of onion—and there’s Baba Ghanoush (Baba Ghanouj). Which is an amazing dip made from roasted eggplant and tahini. I love both dips just as much, but really wanted to see what would happen if I just got crazy and combined both recipes. It was fantastic! I seem to be in competition with myself. I want to know just…
My New Best Pesto Rosso
You know the old adage: “Eat everything that isn’t nailed down, then eat everything that IS nailed down. Then eat the nails“, right? That’s exactly how I felt when I came up with this recipe. What can I say? It happens. Now it wouldn’t be a problem if I was craving healthy foods, but clearly I wasn’t. Come to think of it, I never do; I crave sugar and…
Faux Red Lobster Biscuits
A little while ago I received an email, from Tracey, with a cookbook attached to it—for which I’ll be eternally grateful. It’s a special copycat cookbook! I think I shrieked when I saw it! She mailed it to me because of the Lawry’s seasoned salt recipe in it. Obviously—with my severe Lawry’s addiction—she thought I might like. And I sure did! Now I’d already found the Lawry’s recipe online, but when…
Kay’s Hummus
For years I made my hummus (or hummous) the classic way. I really liked it, but I didn’t really start to love it until I seriously tweaked the authentic recipe. I’m a firm believer in tweaking recipes; you have to make a recipe your own. Unless they’re cookies or cakes, then I wouldn’t mess with the quantities used. That’s what I like about having a food blog. It’s so much…
Pepper & Corn Pies
I really should do something about this puff pastry addiction of mine. But it’s so tasty! And easy! These mini Pepper & Corn Pies are really simple, but they taste and look absolutely wonderful and can even be made a day ahead of time. Really nice when you want to serve something different as an appetizer. Or as a savoury snack. It also makes for great picnic food. Really versatile mini-pie, I tell you!
