Bacon may be bad for you, but I love it! Combine it with a juicy cube of venison and I don't mind spending an extra 30 minutes in the gym.

Food and Wine Recipe.

"This is simple and easy. Serve it in cupcake papers. It freezes well, too."

This is one of the most popular dishes at the cafe I work at-there you can get it on 3 different choices of wrap; sun-dried tomato, spinach, or flour. It's REALLY good

"This pizza uses hummus instead of the usual red sauce - a unique and healthy pizza for those bored with the traditional. Top with your favorite veggies and cheese."

Whipped this up tonight since we have been a bit vegetable deficient lately. I LOVE hummus, as does my fiance, so I thought this would be perfect. It turned out really well. This is based on my Lebanese friend's recipe for hummus--she is religious about hummus and tabbouleh, so I know I have the basic recipe down pat!! :-) Be sure to adjust anything you want; it is possible to make hummus more low in fat by reducing the amount of tahini or olive oil you add, and if you hate edamame, then omit it. Just make it up with water, stock, or the liquid from the can of garbanzo beans. IT occurs to me that this would be perfect for St Patrick's Day....it's completely green, with all the spinach and edamame.

"This unique dip combines creamy Ranch dressing and hummus. Perfect on pita wedges or served with fresh vegetables."

The Mediterranean version of the ever popular Mexican layered dip. Instead of using garlic salt, I mix a large clove of pressed garlic with the hummus. Serve with toasted pita, flat bread or tortilla chips.

"Raw organic hummus. A treat from traditionally cooked hummus and causes very little gas because all the enzymes are still there. When I serve this I make a depression in the middle and fill it with olive oil. Serve with pita bread, carrot or celery sticks, or small romaine leaves."

Another one of our families "favorite" egg rolls. We serve them as a main dish meal, not as an appetizer.

"These yummy brownies can be made vegan, just use margarine in place of butter."

"The best hummus recipe I ever had. A simple authentic tasting hummus is served with toasted pita wedges brushed with olive oil and seasoned with rosemary. A beautiful dish that goes well on an appetizer buffet."

I make these anytime of the year, but was a tradition with my granddaughter that we take them to Easter Sunrise Service breakfast. Everyone loves them. If you don't overbake them, they are soft and tender and delicious with an icing. You'll make them again and again.

"'Mom prepared this light and fluffy citrus dessert whenever Dad grilled outdoors,' recalls field editor Sue Gronholz of Columbus, Wisconsin. 'It gave our meals a fresh-tasting finish!'"

"Serve with pita bread-you can cut pita bread into wedges and toast it for a different taste sensation. Tahini is a sesame paste, you can usually find it in the Mediterranean section of your grocery store."
