PIZZA KALE CHIPS

Hey hey
Last week when I was munching on my cheesy BBQ kale chips I had an AWE.MAZE.ING idea!! 

P I Z Z A kale chips! 

Ingredients: 
2-3 TBSP Tomato paste
Pizza seasoning mix (below) 
1/2 cup nutritional yeast 

Seasoning mix: 
2 TBSP Itailan seasoning
1TBSP dried Basil 
1 1/2 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp oregano
1/8 tsp red chili flakes
1/2 tsp crushed fennel seeds


I used a couple tsps of water in the tomato paste to thin it out a bit and added in a couple TBSP of spice mix.. Then added in a couple handfuls of washed kale torn into pieces.
I used my hands to get the sauce in all the nooks and crannies, after all they are your best utensils! 

Then I sprayed my baking pan with some coconut oil and spread out the kale chips. You dont want them to be to close together. 

Then I sprinkled a good amount of nutrional yeast over the top of them before baking them in a 220 degree oven for 30 mins 
Then I flipped them, sprinkled more nutritional yeast on them and baked for another 30-40 mins until crispy. 

Makes sure to not overload them with sauce bc they seem to not get very crispy when that happens. 


These are so TASTY!! 
I hope you enjoy them as much as my son and I did!!

TASTY TUESDAY RECIPE ~ Sriracha cucumber hummus

HEY THERE . You AMAZING SOUL!  

I have started doing something called TASTY TUESDAY. Every Tuesday I will make something I haven't had before and share it with YOU!! 

I found this amazing hummus recipe in a magazine somewhere and recently cleaning out my phone pics I stumbled upon it!! 


The only thing I would do differently is I would shred the cucumber (that actually is blended with the chickpeas) and squeeze the water out. 
The hummus is a bit looser consistency than reg hummus and I couldn't figure out why.. DUH... The water content in the cucumber! 

Here's the recipe 
1 English cucumber peeled 
1 can garbanzo beans drained
4 cloves garlic
1/4 cup Tahini
3 TBLS Sriracha 
Juice of 1 lemon
2 TBLS Extra V Olive Oil
1TBLS Cumin
2 tsp Smoked Paprika 
Salt and pepper to taste
**I'm writing the how to like I will do next time**

Cut about a 1/4 off the peeled cucumber, set to the side for garnish
Grate cucumber then squeeze out as much excess liquid 
Then put everything into a food processor and whiz it up!! 

Dice up the remaining reserved cuc, add hummus into bowl, add diced cucs in center with a drizzle of olive oil or Sriracha. 
Makes 2 cups
Keeps in fridge up to 1 week

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do! 
I would love to hear what your thoughts, leave em below!
