What's Cookin Wednesday, January 9th

Happy hump day friends!  In the spirit of being prepared for the week AND getting my blue dot each day this week, I was inspired to make some garlic hummus that I saw Kim (PrepWhisperer) shared on her YouTube channel.  My husband and I love garlic hummus so I knew the minute I saw it that this was going to be a big hit in our house.  This was definitely a win!  The recipe is below:

Garlic Hummus
Makes approximately 1.5 cups/8 servings

1 can of garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
2 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tsp Garlic
1/2 tsp Cumin
2 tbsp Tahini (add last)
2 tsp Olive Oil (after you begin processing)
Water (as needed to get it to the consistency you want)

Put beans in the food processor.  Add Lemon Juice, Cumin, garlic and then tahini.

I have linked the video where I got the recipe above and Kim shares her past experiences with making it previously.  Definitely a winner and will be very tasty with my veggies this week!  I may even splurge and have a veggie wrap this week.  

I use a Ole tortilla, a serving of hummus topped with lettuce, tomatoes and bell pepper.  Yum!

What's Cooking Wednesday, May 7, 2025

I hesitate to even call this a recipe.  I have been making this super easy, but versatile recipe for years.  My ex-grandmother-in-law made hers spicier, but for my young one (at the time I started making this) wasn't a fan of spicy foods.  So I created a cheeseburger variety of the meat pie.  It's simply Grands biscuits, hamburger meat and cheese.  I believe she used the standard biscuit, but I have been using Grands for years.  You can absolutely change this up to use different ingredients, but it's a family favorite so I haven't changed it much.  I may do a different variety soon to bring to you!   You can watch the video here:  YouTube

Picnic in the Park Collab

 S’mores Protein Bites Recipe You can find the original recipe  here  from Six Sisters' Stuff.  The one below is the way I prepared it. Ingredients 1½ cups Simple Truth Old Fashioned Oats ¼ cup crushed graham cracker crumbs ½ cup Simple Truth almond butter ½ cup raw honey ¼ cup vanilla protein powder (I used Orgain Vanilla Protein Powder) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract ½ cup mini marshmallows ¼ cup mini chocolate chips Instructions Combine all ingredients in a bowl or stand mixer until well combined. Roll dough into 1 inch balls and place on a baking sheet covered with foil or parchment paper. Place in the freezer for about 1 hour, then store in a resealable bag or airtight container in the fridge for up to a week (or in the freezer for up to a month). This original recipe says 15 servings.  I am not sure if I used a smaller scoop but I came out with 25 or so.  There were a couple that were smaller.
