Cookie Dough Hummus
This recipe is SO GOOD, I have been known to eat it by the spoonfuls! You can even eat it with celery to amp up your veggie intake. Here is the way I modify the original recipe:
Ingredients
1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed very well
1/8 tsp baking soda
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup peanut butter or nut butter of your choice
1/4 cup milk of choice, only if needed
1/3 cup chocolate chips
2-3 tbsp oats as needed to thicken
Instructions
Add all ingredients (except for chocolate chips) to a good food processor, and process until smooth. Then mix in the chocolate chips.
Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins
This is a FAN FAVORITE recipe with my family and neighbors. It's so easy and delicious. I make a double batch and freeze them. If you want to make them into bars instead of muffins, pour one batch into an 11x17 pan that's lined with parchment paper sprayed with cooking spray. Let it cool completely before cutting.
Ingredients
- Nonstick cooking spray & parchment paper optional
- 1 cup reduced fat (2%) plain Greek yogurt
- 3 Tbsp. honey
- 2 large very ripe bananas cut into chunks
- 2 large eggs
- ½ tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups dry rolled oats
- 1½ tsp. baking powder
- ½ tsp. baking soda
- ½ tsp. sea salt (or Himalayan salt)
- 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
- ⅔ cup chopped raw walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- Prepare 12 muffin cups by lining with muffin papers or lightly coating with spray.
- Place yogurt, honey, bananas, eggs, extract, oats, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in blender (or food processor); cover. Blend until smooth, scraping once or twice, as needed.
- Gently fold in blueberries and walnuts.
- Evenly divide batter among prepared muffin cups.
- Bake 20 to 25 minutes, or until tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Transfer muffins to rack; cool.
Roasted Chickpeas
Roasted chickpeas are a delicious high-fiber snack. They're oven-roasted and seasoned to taste with cayenne and garlic salt. Make this recipe your own by swapping the seasonings listed with your own like cinnamon, taco seasoning, or ranch seasoning. Be creative with what your tastebuds enjoy.
