Simple Sunday

Although I love to cook and create in the kitchen I also love the beauty of a simple meal. Hummus and Veggies is a simple go to snack or meal at our house. And after a busy day of napping and cleaning I wanted a quick, simple, light clean up meal.

The boys love to dip and see who can create the largest mountain of veggies and hummus on top of a flaxseed cracker, that still fits in the mouth! The conversation is so genuine between smiles and laughs and licking fingers of hummus.

Quick Prep, Happy Bellies, Nurished Cells, Elbows on the Table, 3 minute Clean Up

... a perfect dinner

Hummus
1 can chickpeas (garbanzo beans) drained, rinsed
1 lemon, juiced
1-2 tbsp olive oil
1-2 tbsp tahini
1 clove garlic
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp paprika

Mix all ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Create different flavors by adding additional herbs, spices, or veggies.
