Get Your Hummus On

Dude. It's party time! The holiday season is upon us and that means it's time to whip up your favorite hummus and dip recipes.

Then it's here comes the sun, Baby. So. Huzzah! Let's celebrate. To help in such a worthy cause, here's one of our favorite hummus recipes.

Let the sun shine in.



Karina's Roasted Red Pepper Hummus Recipe

Recipe posted December 2007.

Forget store bought hummus that's been sitting in the deli case for weeks. It's laden with soybean oil- or worse. And hummus is such an easy treat to make at home- especially if you have a food processor. Five minutes prep- and you're ready to rock.

Ingredients:

1 16-oz. (or 14-15-ounce) can chilled chickpeas or garbanzo beans, drained
Juice of one fresh lemon
2 tablespoons sesame tahini, sunflower seed or nut butter
4 cloves fresh garlic, peeled
1/3 cup roasted red peppers (if using jarred, drain the peppers)
3 tablespoons tasty extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh parsley or basil, roughly chopped
Pinch of sea salt, to taste

Instructions:

Combine all of the ingredients in a food processor until creamy smooth.

Taste test and adjust the olive oil and seasoning to your liking. Cover and chill until serving.

Fab with fresh organic veggies, rice crackers, or organic blue corn chips. Or serve with my gluten-free easy Brown Rice Tortilla Chips, Buttermilk Flat Bread, or Savory Grain-free Crackers.

Karina's Note:

This naturally gluten-free hummus is also fab as a side dish with a plate of roasted vegetables and brown rice. It's a perfect way to add a complementary protein to a vegan meal.

You know, those stalwart gotta have my meat and potatoes aficionados who eschew anything leafy. Who snicker at fiber. And mock carrot sticks. The sort of individual who gets misty eyed for melted butter and bacon martinis. To said individuals, salad could never be anything but rabbit chow. But this lovely mélange of flavors just might piqu...

Gluten-Free Goddess Zucchini Bread

Image
Got Zukes Galore? Sharing a favorite summer recipe here on Gluten-Free Goddess-- a cinnamon laced tea bread made with garden fresh zucchini. You'll love it. And so will everyone else. I also jotted down some batter and baking tips for ya. See below. GFG Tips on gluten-free bread baking: Here's my all-time favorite baking pan for gluten-free breads. It's a lovely glazed ceramic pan that creates steady, even heating for gluten-free batters. In other words, it's as foolproof as you can get. Find it here at Amazon:  Good Cook 9-Inch Ceramic Loaf Pan . Make sure your batter isn't cold when you put it into the oven. If you keep your flours in the fridge, for instance, this will cool down your batter quite a bit. If you find your batter is cooler than room temperature, allow the batter to rest in the pan near the pre-heating stove and let it come to room temperature before you place the bread pan in the oven to bake (I also do this with cakes sometimes). The first time...

So I'm digging into the archives. June is here. And you start imagining fresh, juicy blueberries, nestled beneath a perfectly golden crumble of a crust, warm, the deepest purple, bubbling as you slide it- ever so gently- out of the oven and onto a cooling rack to rest and settle until you can't stand it a minute longer, breathing in the cinnamon laced aroma of a summer dessert classic. The forever glorious blueberry crisp. And this one's gluten-free. And dairy-free. No xanthan gum either- a bonus. So darling. Don't wait. Blueberry season is short and sweet. Peace + Love, Karina xox

Coconut Milk Ice Cream Berry Parfaits

Image
Parfait this! Easy fancy for a long hot summer- so bookmark this one... a simple, creamy coconut ice cream recipe served parfait style with blueberries and strawberries. And it's naturally gluten-free and dairy-free. And because you make it yourself, gum-free and carrageenan-free. So many yays. It was sunny and hot yesterday, and today is a repeat. So during a heat wave, even a modest two-day hot fest, yours truly is unable to muster any enthusiasm for cooking. Typically, I live on gluten-free granola. And ice cream. Yes, I know. I am a poor, sad, sad role model. What kind of food blogger doesn't rise to the challenge and cheer-lead you to whip up baby kale and avocado salads and raw maca peach turmeric and oat milk smoothies? What kind of food blogger would simply give in to her sticky, prickly fatigue and general overall crankiness and not create some virtuous, nutrition packed bunny food miracle slurry for you? This one. She who is about to share a no-cook reci...
