If any of you have been following my IG account you’ve noticed I’ve been having a moment with tartine’s (tartine is French for open faced sandwich). Yesterday’s was hummus, Persian cucumber, and avocado. Monday’s was egg salad and arugula, and Sunday was mashed avocado and arugula. I was thinking of a fun way to spruce up my hummus tartine and Edamame Hummus would be perfect. Recipe below.

Hummus

Ingredients

  • 1 can of chickpeas drained and liquid saved
  • 3 tablespoon of tahini (love the Mighty Sesame brand tahini)
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 lemon juice
  • salt & pepper to taste ( I use 1 teaspoon salt)

Directions

Put all your ingredients into the Cuisinart (or blender) and blend. Once it’s all blended, slowly add your liquid from the chickpeas until you get your desired consistency. Garnish with a sprinkle of paprika. 

Below is a picture of the flower arrangement from our Sedar last night. I asked my daughter to pick some flowers for me and I gave her a bag. When she brought the flowers back it looked so pretty in the bag I used it as our centerpiece. A fun way to recycle a beautiful bag.
