Our Cookbook Blog

Our Cookbook ~ What We Cook, is a compilation of every recipe we (Janice and Carissa) cook - recipes from our cookbook collections, our recipe boxes, and our heads! We set up this blog for friends and family who have our cookbook to let them see pictures we post of the recipes in the book, and also for us to note any corrections, revisions, or additions to What We Cook. We encourage people who are cooking our recipes to let us know how the recipes turn out and any suggestions they might want to make.

In addition, we will be sharing some of our new recipes (along with pictures) that are not in our cookbook. We hope you will help us out and test recipes and give us your comments.

Hummus ~ page 22

This is one of my favorite appetizers, it is quick to make and lasts a while in the fridge. I like the cumin in the recipe, most recipes don't have that spice in there. I am cheap so I always use peanut butter instead of Tahini, and it does add a nuttier flavor to the dip, but I love it that way. For some reason it makes it feel healthier to me, not sure it that is really that true though.


Here is a picture of the mixture getting creamed in the old faithful food processor! I like to dip baby carrots in mine--Carissa

this is quite possibly my favorite recipe of yours, Carissa! this pic makes me want to make it but mine never tastes as good as yours (although it's still great!)

Can't wait to see you guys this weekend!!
