Three Pepper Roasted Hummus / Vegas

August 13, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 23 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Oh Monday is going to be tough for me.  After having 9 days off and then going back.  Ugh!  Now don’t get me wrong, I love my job, but it would be so nice to win the lottery and be a stay at home wife!  🙂  Sigh…  For today’s post I have lots of goodies to share with you.  First off I made this!

Your looking at my Three Pepper Spicy Hummus.  This hummus is creamy and only has a slight kick of heat from the jalapeno type pepper I used.  I am growing it in my garden and I don’t recall the name of the pepper.  The heat on it is very similar to a jalapeno, so in the recipe I recommend using a jalapeno.


To make the hummus I also used a small sweet bell pepper and a gypsy pepper from my CSA box.  I decided to roast my peppers on the grill for added flavor.  Have you ever roasted peppers?  It’s so easy.  I cored the peppers, take out the seeds and place directly on the grill.  I roast it until it’s charred turning about every 2  – 3 minutes.  Once the pepper is chard, I place it in a brown lunch bag to steam.  I let it sit for about 30 minutes.  Then I peel the skin off the pepper.  It’s really easy and quick.

I decided to make a healthy hummus with no oil or tahini paste this week because I haven’t had it in so long and I thought it would go great on veggie sandwiches, plus it makes for a great snack for dipping veggies in.  It’s all part of my healthy eating that I plan on doing.  Since I was on the make healthy food for the week, I also grilled 3 chicken breasts for salads, sandwiches other recipes that I may make this week.  I weighed the chicken and placed in ziplock baggies for easy grabbing and portion control.

After I’m done writing this post, I plan on cutting up some strawberries and making a big batch of quinoa for my lunches and breakfast parfait jars.  It’s so nice big batch cooking, it makes for easy breakfast and lunches.  Today, I also did some much-needed vegetable picking from my garden.  It seems my vegetables went crazy while I was gone.  Here is today’s pick, and there are more tomatoes coming.  What should I do with all of these tomatoes?

This Sunday I woke up had some yummy Dunkin Donuts K-Cup Coffee.  I didn’t sleep to well, since I picked up a sore throat from Las Vegas.  At least I don’t feel sick.  I did start my 90 day program and I did my morning workout, which made me feel so good that I did it.  After my workout I went to Trader Joe’s for some much-needed groceries.  I didn’t get as many veggies as I wanted to, but that is only because I am getting my CSA box on Wednesday and I’m not sure what will be in it.  Speaking of Trader Joe’s, here is a picture of this weeks buys, oh and speaking of buys there are some new goodies that I picked up.  You’ll have to go to my Trader Joe’s page and look under new items.  There are two I am really excited about.

I thought I would fill you in on more about my Vegas trip.  The first full day that we were there we decided to go to Hoover Dam.  We have been to Las Vegas about half a dozen times and yet we never go anywhere away from the strip.  We decided on this one we should see what Hoover Dam is like.

We thought it was pretty cool!  There was a Memorial Bridge up above and my Husband wanted to walk across it, so we did.

We climbed up some stairs, and died from the heat, it was 116 degrees out at 11am, but we did it!!  The view from the bridge was gorgeous!!!  It was pretty cool to think we walked to Arizona!  🙂

When we left Hoover Dam there was a lookout point of Lake Mead.  I never realized how big Lake Mead was.  But then again I should have known, it’s where they hold the bass fishing tournaments.  Lake Mead I believe is the largest man-made lake there is, but I could be wrong about that.

After we left Lake Mead we decided to head back to the strip for lunch.  We went to one of our favorite cheap spots, Pinks Hot Dogs located at Planet Hollywood.  It’s not healthy, but it’s dam good!  We always stop at Pinks when we are in LA, so it’s a must stop when were in Vegas.

The hot dog in the middle is mine!  So darn delicious!  It was ketchup, mustard, pickles and jalapenos.  Don’t mock it until you try it!!  My Husband had the chili cheese dog with mustard and onions.  It’s the classy version of his shitty canoes, which is a hot dog loaded with chili!!  Blah!!

Well my peeps I have been rambling and it’s getting late and I still need to make that quinoa.  Have a great week!!!!!!!!!!

Toodles,

Jen

    Do you have a substitute for gypsy peppers? I don’t think they have any on Guam 🙁

      I would use another sweet bell pepper instead of a gypsy pepper. Thats what I would of used if I didn’t have the gypsy peppers.

    I occasionally think I want to stay at home someday and not work…but I think I’d get bored within a few days. Definitely within a week or so!!

    This hummus looks great! Definitely perfect for snacking or sandwiches!

    I pin almost all of your recipes, and this hummus is no exception 🙂 what should you do with your tomatoes, you ask? a few suggestions that I’ve done with my garden tomatoes: 1) creamy roasted tomato soup (not a LOT of cream, just about a half cup or so – gotta stay healthy!), 2) roasted garlic and herb tomato sauce, or 3) dice them and can them, so you can taste your summer tomatoes in the middle of winter! looking forward to see what you decide to do…thanks for all your recipes! 🙂

    I simply cannot have too much hummus in my life. I swear – sometimes I even eat it for a late breakfast. Go ahead and judge me. 🙂 I love coming up with new combos to keep things interesting though – I’m putting this one on my list!

    I’m addicted to hummus lately, and I think I’m going to need this spicy hummus in my life. Yes, I’m going to need this, indeed.

    You look so happy with that hotdog in your hands, and I don’t blame you. It looks amazing.

    If you are really slammed for time, you can just freeze the tomatoes whole, with peels still on, in baggies. When you want tomatoes for cooking, just thaw, and the peels come off by themselves!

Happy Monday! I did a little bit of Spring cleanin Happy Monday! I did a little bit of Spring cleaning this weekend. I wanted to give my kitchen counters the less is more look.
🫧
I did have a very hard time taking my sink tray off the counter. I’ve had the tray there for years, so I thought I would change it up. Don’t be surprised if the sink tray makes its way back. 😂 I may add some herbs to my window sill for some fresh green color.

Happy Friday! Our next winter storm is here! It is Happy Friday! Our next winter storm is here! It is just awful out there. Heavy rain, high winds and hail. This is not a winter that we are used to in California. 
🥕
My husband and I are not fancy when it comes to eating dinner. Since it’s just the two of us, we never use the dining room table, but always eat at the kitchen counter.
🥕
There is no reason why we can’t eat fancy at the kitchen counter. I am using my new placemats that I got from @vmathome. They are thick, water, stain resistant and can handle heat up to 350F degrees. I love the color and style of the placemats. They have a wide variety of styles and colors, along with matching table runners.
🥕
I styled my table with bright spring colors that I was inspired by carrots. I still have bunnies on the brain. lol I had fun with this place setting, it’s so nice to have dinner with a little style then having it on a plain plate and paper napkins.
🥕
Have a wonderful weekend!!

Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Sprin Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Spring. I looked back last year at this time and my garden was starting to flourish. Boy you should see it now. It’s a big muddy mess. With all the rain and high winds we sure have a huge mess to clean. I can’t wait until we get some warm days. 
🐰
I’m sharing with you one of my favorite vignettes that I created last year. I may have a slight obsession with bunnies. Every year I say no more buying bunnies, but then I end up with a few more in my collection. Lol

Happy Monday!! Hope you had a nice weekend! I’ll Happy Monday!! Hope you had a nice weekend! I’ll be honest, I great intentions on decorating my house this weekend, but with the rain and cold, I got pretty lazy. I had packages that were supposed to arrive last week, but with the winter storms here on the west coast, my packages seem to be stuck in Nevada. This weather is so crazy!
🌸
Here is my little corner of my living room with a little pop of spring. Sorry about the lighting. With this weather, photographing is not easy.
🌸
I added a pillow that I got from Target and a white blanket I already had on hand. I of course had to add some bunnies. The wooden bunny with the flowers is from my friend Abby @ittybittycottage. 
🌸
Have a wonderful Monday!!

Happy Wednesday! We are getting such crazy weather Happy Wednesday! We are getting such crazy weather. We are having extreme winds again and boy is it cold out. It’s only in the 30’s right now and tomorrows high is in the 40’s. Normally by now I am planting seeds in the ground and prepping for Spring gardening. I don’t see that happening anytime soon. Where’s the California Spring weather?
🐰
Since we don’t have Spring outside, I thought I would bring Spring in the house. I bought my first fresh bouquet of tulips. Aren’t they pretty? This makes me so happy. Plus I couldn’t resist bringing the bunnies out. They seemed to have multiplied since last Spring. lol
🐰
This Spring vignette was inspired by the beautiful welcome sign from @krumpetshomedecor. I love the bead handle and the cute little bunny on it. The sign is reversible, swipe to see other side. So you can use it all year. It would be beautiful in an entry, guest bedroom and on your front porch.

Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. Yesterd Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. Yesterday we watched on Netflix Your Place or Mine with Reese Witherspoon and Ashton Kutcher. If you like the classic Rom-Com movies you’ll enjoy it.
💗
I added a little of Spring decor to my bench in my living room. I will probably change this spot up once I pull my spring decor out, but for now I like it.
💗
It’s crazy how big this space looks in video, when it’s quite small. I call this my runway zone because the dogs run through this space like maniacs. So I have to keep it light with no breakables. 
💗
The two large pillows are from Target and the little bunny pillow is from the Target Dollar Spot. The throw is from Pier1 when they had a storefront. The sign on the wall is from Krumpets Home Decor.

I have gotten so many questions lately about the runner in my kitchen that I thought I would share with you a close up and some information about it. This is not a collaboration. 
🐾
The vinyl runners are from @vmathome. They are so easy to clean, pet friendly, anti-slip, and durable. I love these vinyl runners in the kitchen and hallway. If the dogs get dirt or water on them, I just clean it up with a paper towel. They have been a life saver having them with two young dogs.
🐾
The vinyl mat on the first picture is the Dandelion Vinyl Mat. If you swipe the photo you will see the vinyl mat that used last year in my kitchen which is the Charlotte Vinyl Mat. If you sign up for emails, you will get discount codes.
🐾
These two pictures are a year apart. Look how much my baby Sully has grown. 🥹
🐾
Have the best day!
