The project for the next week or so is going to be a quest for snack foods. Here’s the criteria I’m working with:
- At least somewhat healthy.
- Batch size that is big enough to last a couple days, but not so much that I am staring at the fridge thinking, “Dear lord, I haven’t finished that YET?”
My usual standbys are a half-sandwich, cheese & crackers, or veggies & salad dressing. All fine snacks, but they’re getting a little old and I’m in the mood for some different things. I rarely eat chips anymore, unless I’ve got a specific dip I’ve got a craving for. (Which is probably a good thing, since they’re not exactly at the top of the “great for you” list.)
Right now, the black olive tapenade & roasted red pepper hummus recipes I snagged at Sanderling have a lot of appeal. Will be brainstorming, cooking, photographing & reporting the results.
On an unrelated note, Add More Wine got a nod from DCBlogs.com yesterday, from the Five Guys post. Welcome to those coming here from there!
