Print Dirty Martini Hummus Prep Time: 5 minutes Category: appetizer, dip Yield: About 3 cups hummus I love the smooth and creamy texture of the cannellini beans and the flavor of the chick peas (garbanzo beans). This hummus is an excellent dip for vegetables, crackers and chips. It is very good on sandwiches and wraps. Could even be smeared on toast for a nice warmed in the oven olive hummus ‘tapenade’ dip.Serving Suggestion: Serve in a martini glass with sliced olives for garnish.

Print Peanut Butter Date Bars Serving Size: 1 bar I doubled this recipe. (It's a must in my house!) I like to individually wrap the bars. You can do so with plastic wrap, parchment paper (you can reuse the one you used to line your dish with when making them) or even bags.

Keeps them from sticking together when storing in...

For example the height and age of your child or children, as well as what might be existing in your space or...
