Guest guest Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 I think I'm obsessed with hummus, although I have to ask myself, " How could I not be? " It's fresh-tasting, it's healthy, and it's super easy and inexpensive to whip up. I think maybe I should just write a hummus cookbook. Here's the next one I tried and loved. Of course the sundried tomatoes speak for themselves, and the pesto is a very nice touch. See the finished recipe at http://28cooks.blogspot.com Sundried Tomato and Pesto Hummus 1 can (15oz) garbanzo beans 3 tbsp oil from sundried tomatoes 2 tsp pesto 2 tsp lemon juice 1 tsp tahini 2 cloves garlic, minced 7 sundried tomatoes, minced Salt/pepper Combine beans, oil, pesto, lemon juice, tahini, and garlic. I use a potato masher, but feel free to use a food processor and blend together well. Stir in tomatoes, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Allow to chill for an hour or so, and serve. Enjoy!!

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Christiane, Do you ever try canned soy beans in your hummus recipes. I really like the texture and taste. Bought canned organic soy beans on sale last week for $1 per can . I agree with you Hummus is one of my favorites. I eat it on everything. I also like it heated and seved over pasta or rice. Next week I plan to experiment with making crackers. They are so expensive to buy and cheap to make. Today I am baking tofu that was frozen, thawed and marinated . It is sooo good. Tastes a little like sausage. I used lite soy sauce but for my taste it is still a bit salty. I think it will make a delicious wrap/burrito/sandwhich.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 You know, I've never tried canned soy beans. I'll have to keep my eye out for them and give them a try. And I must admit I've never had heated hummus. I'll have to experiment with it. Did you try these polenta crackers? http://28cooks.blogspot.com/2006/02/polenta-crackersi-love-these-crackers.html Cheap, and super easy! Enjoy dinner. It sounds lovely.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 -Christiane, I buy Westbrae Natural organic Soy beans. I will try the polenta cracker recipe first. I recall the pic and they look great. The tofu turned out great. Next time I will add more sage because I like the *sausage like flavor*.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 here is teh best heated hummus idea (rather than recipe.. because really.. it's not! lol) steam some greens (collard, or whatever you like...) I hated them plain. (HATE>> YUCK> ) but boy oh boy, adding a little redpepper hummus...
