Mushroom Shawarma

Mushroom Shawarma

There is no shortage of amazing Israeli food in DC these days. Between Sababa, Little Sesame, Shouk, and Taim, we can always get our Israeli/mushroom shawarma fix! However, when we want to cook at home, we love buying Mastiha pitas and make our own hummus […]

Pea Falafel Pita Wrap

Pea Falafel Pita Wrap

Typically, I try to share recipes that have minimal ingredients because I think its important to reduce food waste. I find that when you buy a ton of ingredients for one recipe, you end up throwing away the remaining amount you do not use. However, […]

Sunchoke & Dukkah Hummus

Sunchoke & Dukkah Hummus

I think I am running out of stories behind all the different hummus flavors I am making. The long story short is I just love hummus and after tasting the creaminess of sunchokes, I knew it would make a really good hummus, and so I […]

Herb Allium Hummus

Ever since I went to Little Sesame in DC (I am so sad they closed and cannot wait for their new shop)I want to make all the hummus and veggie combos. Not to mention the pita from Baklava Couture I could eat this every day. […]

Fall, where are you? I’m waiting! It’s been 80 degrees for the last week and all I want to do is wear my fall clothes and eat butternut squash, apples, and grapes. I guess I am doing the latter anyways, but it’s just not the […]

Spinach & Feta Hummus

Spinach & Feta Hummus

I can’t believe it has taken me over a year to share a hummus recipe. I basically treat hummus as a good group.  It really goes with anything! And although I love a great traditional hummus (and in case you were wondering,  I HATE red […]

Burrata & Ramp Pesto Pasta

Burrata & Ramp Pesto Pasta

Yes, I know another pesto! But when ramps are in season, I just have too! In fact, I have been waiting quite a long time for these ramps to arrive. Even with some of the unseasonably warm weather here, I was a little off on […]

Broccoli Zucchini Chickpea Farro Risotto

Broccoli Zucchini Chickpea Farro Risotto

Have you ever had the Spelt Risotto from Trader Joes? It is definitely one of my go to frozen foods at Trader Joes. One package is about 2 servings and has less than 3g of Saturated Fat. You have to be careful in the frozen […]
