i almost forgot how much I love the stuff. Today I made a bunch of roasted red pepper hummus for Nicole and I. It really is a wonderful food. For those of you that love it too, you should make it from scratch instead of buying it premade. You can save a bunch of money by doing so. All you need is tahini (sesame seed butter), garlic, lemon juice, chick peas (garbonzo), salt, pepper, olive oil. If you want to add roasted garlic that would be lovely, or you can add whole roasted red peppers that have had their charred skin removed. I wont bother you with the recipe but u can find it anywhere online.

Now a recipe that I will share with you is a sandwhich idea I came up with last week that totally rocks! Take two slices of bread, preferably french bread cut on a bias, take half a clove of garlic and slice it into paper thin slices, half an avacado, some sea salt, and lemon juice, and one package of water packed tuna, put it all together in layers and enjoy! This is seriously the best sandwhich ever.
