He Who Is Faithful With Little....

My name is Nikki. My husband and I have three daughters and are Christians trying to live a simple life and raise godly children. We homeschool, garden, preserve, can, raise chickens, keep bees, and do everything else we can to be self sufficient while we live here in the city. We don't have much space on our little city lot, but we are doing our best to be faithful with little so that we may be found approved to be faithful with much (Luke 16:10). I hope you will find some useful bits of information on raising children, gardening, all matters of the kitchen, and well, homesteading in general!

Hummus

Hummus

1 can Garbonzo beans (chick peas)
2 T. Lemon Juice
1/4 c. olive oil
1 t. Cummin
1/2 t. salt
1/8 t. Garlic powder

Drain the beans and pour in medium sized mixing bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients.
Take a potato masher and mash a bit. You can skip this part if you have a heavy duty blender. But I don't so I mash it a little and then....
Finish it off with my hand mixer!
Traditionally, hummus is eaten with Pita bread. But it's good on tortillas and great on saltiine crackers!
For a great, healthy lunch serve hummus with saltines, unsweetened applesauce, and string cheese.
Enjoy!
