Super Bowl Sunday doesn’t have to be sinful (see: Buffalo Chicken Wontons); there are definitely some recipes on the healthier side that are still “snacky” enough for a football game. Check out broke girl Marisa’s post on Fruit Salsa and Cinnamon Chips, or read on!
Homemade Hummus
- 2 cans (14.5 oz) garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
- 1/4 cup Tahini
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- Salt & pepper
- Cold Water
- Olive Oil
Combine the garbanzo beans, tahini, garlic, lemon and seasonings into a food processor or blender.
Blend, and add cold water and olive oil, one Tbsp at a time, until you reach the consistency you prefer.
Serve with pita chips, tortilla chips, or assorted veggies!
Homemade Salsa
I found this recipe via Pinterest and it’s amazing!
- 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes
- 1 can (10 oz) orginal Rotel
- 1/2 small onion, roughly chopped
- 1 clove garlic, peeled and smashed
- 1/2 jalapeno, seeded or not (depends on how spicy you like it)
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
- Small to medium size handful of cilantro, washed
- Juice of 1 lime
Put all the ingredients in the base of a food processor or blender.
Food processor overload!
Pulse to combine for 30 seconds or so until all the ingredients are finely chopped and salsa is desired consistency. Taste for seasoning and adjust to taste. Serve with multi-grain chips. Yum!
