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 World Kindness Day! This weekend I made my a Happy World Kindness Day! This weekend I made my annual snow jar to place on my shelf in the kitchen. You get a tiny sneak peak of my shelves at the end of the reel. The snow jars are so easy to do and you probably have most of the items on hand. 
💗
For the snow, I used blanket snow. You could also use, sugar or Epsom salt. I like the blanket snow because it’s not messy and it hides the fairy lights battery pack.
💗
The houses are ornaments that I bought at Target. I thought they were Perfect for my pink kitchen. Of course you can use whatever you have on hand. It doesn’t have to be a house and tree.
💗
If you buy fairy lights, make sure they have a timer on them. Trust me that will make life easier. If you don’t like fairy lights, you can use a faux candle. 
Ohhh and have a stack of batteries. I go through more batteries in the month of December then I do the rest of the year!
💗
Items used:
Apothecary jar
Fairy lights with timer
Pink house ornament
Bottlebrush tree
Pink ribbon 

Everything, but the pink ribbon was bought at Target. 
💗
Have fun creating! If you make one, tag me so I can share!!

🎄
But I still do plan on doing pink in my kitchen. I figured I could use some pink everyday pieces that I already have and add pops of pink ornaments and pink little Christmas trees. I plan doing some shopping this week to see what I can find in pink. I’m so excited!! 
🎄
Have a fantastic Monday!

Happy Monday! Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile. Happy Monday! Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile. My husband was sick with the flu, then he passed it on to me. My dog even had an upper respiratory infection. Ugh! It was a rough 2 weeks. Then on Friday I had surgery to remove skin cancer on my chest. I’m sore and I can’t lift or exercise. Anyway, that’s why I have not been on.
🦇
I wanted to give you one last look at my Halloween kitchen before I change it out. Not sure if I’m going to add some Fall or Christmas next. Did you know Christmas is in 63 days? 😳
🦇
So I have been thinking about Christmas colors. The past 2 years I have done green and I love it, however I have always wanted to do a pink Christmas. Just not sure if I can pull it off? I don’t know if I want to go crazy and buy a bunch of pink? What color are you doing this year?
🦇
Have a great day!!
