RAINBOWS FOR BREAKFAST: Great HUMMUS Recipe

If you love HUMMUS, here is a super and authentic recipe on a fascinating blog. I really love hummus, esp if it is made like this. http://humus101.com/EN/2006/10/14/hummus-recipe/

SUPER-FAST NON-FAT BEAN SOUP

Mix one 16 oz can of Rosarita brand Green Chiles and Lime No Fat refried beans with enough liquid from a 14 oz can of Swansons' Chicken Broth (low sodium) or any good quality chicken broth or homemade; stir to the consistency you like for soup and you have a great bean soup in about 5 minutes. Heat on the stove, and it's very tasty for an extremely quick meal. Top with some cilantro and/or non fat sour cream. (Note: if you want to add some fresh chopped onion, garlic and/or chiles and a little lemon juice, it will take a little more time, but not add any more fat. If you add some pitted black olives, it will add a bit more fat calories, and sodium.) If you are limiting salt, you can first rinse the canned pinto beans (or the black whole beans) in cold water (in a strainer) to remove excess salt before using.

I'm Always Chasing Rainbows

Are we influenced by the events which were taking place at the time of our birth? I have always been passionate about rainbows. The year I was born "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" became famous. As the theme song from the Wizard of Oz, it struck a magical chord with the entire world.
And then, my mother named me Judy. Hmmmm. My birthday falls on St. Judith's Saints Day. (I don't know much about Saints, and I don't think my mom did.) Amazing Synchronicity! We love to cook with rainbow colors in mind. Dazzle and drizzle!

"Rainbows for Breakfast", a book I wrote, is dedicated to my granddaughter Katie. She gleefully ate rainbows for breakfast every morning. Now she's a very colorful kid! :)
Here's how we "fixed" rainbows every moring: we hung large (1 inch) faceted lead crystal balls in the morning-sunlit kitchen window, and just about breakfast time, on sunny days, there were hundreds of rainbows scattered all over the kitchen! They taste fabulous! :) To see one of the little rainbows, look on the white toaster in the picture of the RAINBOW KITCHEN at the top of this blog.
