Whole grain/6 recipes

Hummus is such a simple thing to make that you could easily prepare it at home, and it also tastes much better than the shop bought options mainly due to the freshness of the ingredients. We’ve gone for a slightly different twist with this hummus dish and used split peas instead of chickpeas. It makes 6 coconut naans and a couple of pots full of delicious split pea hummus.

Texas French Bread's Fresh Apple Muffins recipe

This Pasta Salad with Cucumber, Tomato, and Feta was not something I had planned on blogging about. It merely came about because I had nothing to cook for dinner, save a package of gluten-free pasta I had picked up for emergencies and a variety of veggies from my CSA. Then my husband loved it so much that he had two helpings, and he insisted that I write about it. I’m trying to move my family towards a more grain-free existence, but sometimes I just don’t have it in me to think gourmet. Sometimes, we do the best that we can. All this is my way of saying that the amounts of ingredients here are really just approximations. I have no idea what exactly I put in here to make it taste so yummy. You’ll have to channel your inner Italian grandma, and just mix in ingredients until the food tastes good.
