Only 100 Calories: Grilled Vegetable and Hummus Sandwich

October 21, 2012 by Amanda Natividad in Cooked, Entrees, Meal Type

Eggplant makes for the perfect flavor sponge -- it soaks up that fiery, smoky flavor from the grill. Paired with crunchy red bell pepper, nestled on a bed of fresh spinach, smeared lovingly with hummus and then tucked away into warm pita bread, it makes for the substantially perfect meal.

My Comfort Food: Garlic Hummus

October 19, 2012 by Amanda Natividad in No-Cook, Side Dishes

Some hummus recipes call for too much tahini. Others try to too hard and call for red bell peppers or sun-dried tomatoes. I prefer to keep it simple: chickpeas and tahini, with lots of garlic and lemon juice.
