recipes

Here are a few yummy recipes 
we've used at preschool for snacks.

hummus 
1 can of chick peas (Don't drain juice - you'll dump it all in!)
1 small garlic clove
dash of salt/pepper
2-3 T. olive oil 
1 tsp. lemon juice
2 large T. Tahini oil (sesame seed oil)
a dash or so of curry powder (depends on how "spicy" you like it)
Blend all ingredients together in a mixer/food processor/ or whatever you have until its smooth and just the right consistency for dipping veggies or pita bread. 

fruit smoothies
1 can of orange juice
1 can of pineapple juice
sliced bananas (2)
frozen strawberries (substitute other favorite fruits)
Add about 2 cups (each) of orange and pineapple juice to blender. Add bananas and about 1/2 bag of frozen strawberries. Blend until smooth. I made two of these batches for 19 children/teachers - about 6 oz. each serving. There was quite a bit of juice leftover after I made the smoothies.
