Roasted garlic hummus. This is the first time I’ve cooked chickpeas and made the entire recipe from scratch. The result is good, but not worthy of the extra hour of cooking. Canned chickpeas are a-okay.
Vegan brownies. Also my first time making this recipe and once again, not exactly my cup of tea. If I am going to splurge on a chocolately baked good, you might as well give me the animal fat too. However my new coworkers feel otherwise and are currently dancing around the office eating these. You say brownie, I say blahnie.
For as much as I love to bake, there are few sweets worthy of the splurge these days. Must be the heat. Or the fact that Golden Spoon is keeping me a very, very happy girl in the dessert department. What? Another 115 degree day? I think I’ll take a large. Make it peanut butter cup. Although pistachio is pretty darn good. And so is minty chocolate. At 60 calories a serving, I’m bound to have tried the entire menu before the oven goes from broil to warm. Only three months left.
