So summer has hit, and now the easy low-calorie soups become rather unreasonable to eat in temperatures above 30 degrees. So I find comfort in throwing aside the full warm meals and replace them with easy, ready to go snacks. A few great additions to your grocery list such as peanut butter, cottage cheese and my personal favourite, hummus. I found an easy recipe for cheater's hummus with easy-to-find ingredients.
1/3 cup Smooth Peanut Butter (a low fat version is better)
2 tablespoons Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
1 Garlic Clove
1 teaspoon Nutmeg (can be omitted)
Salt and Pepper to taste
Put all ingredients into a bowl and blend. You can taste and add more Olive Oil, Lemon Juice, Nutmeg, Salt and Pepper to your taste. If the mixture is too dry and dusty add some brine to loosen it up and smooth it out.
Spread it on a multi-grain cracker, low GI bread, or use as a dip with various seasonal vegetables. For those who love the spicy side of life add some chilli and wish away your winter weight. I hope this works you.
Let me know if you have any other additions or alterations to this recipe in the comments below.
Don't forget to: Run, fat bitch.
