Roasted Bell Pepper Hummus

 

My dad harvested some red bell peppers from his home garden for me.  I got a lot of goodies from his garden so couldn't eat them all in time.  I cleaned, prepped and freezed them for later use. I cut them in two different styles with the intention of adding them to chili and a stir fry.  However, I ended up using them to make roasted red bell pepper hummus.

Here's the link to the original recipe I followed: https://www.inspiredtaste.net/22016/roasted-red-pepper-hummus-recipe/

I used lime instead of lemon because that's what I had on hand and added a bit more olive oil because I wanted the texture smoother. I also air fried my bell pepper and didn't peel off the skin.

My father harvested a bunch of scallions for me from his home garden. We cleaned them all up and prepped them for cooking.

Homegrown, organic, sustainable, abundant gardening.

Lima Bean side

 

I harvested some lima bean pods from my grandparents' garden.  So they're homegrown, organic, sustainable, and after I cooked them, it's garden to table. Ha!  I enjoyed it as a side dish with some ribs, white rice, and a little tomato salad.

Ingredients:

  • Lima beans
  • garlic, chopped
  • butter
  • olive oil
  • salt and pepper
  • water for boiling

 Instructions: 

  1. Pick lima bean pods.
  2. Bring pot of water to boil.
  3. Rinse lima bean pods and remove beans from pods.
  4. Boil lima beans for 3 minutes, until fork tender and drain.
  5. Melt butter in pan.
  6. Add garlic and olive oil to butter and stir until fragrant.
  7. Add beans, salt, and pepper and stir.
  8. Enjoy!
