Hummus

 My version of hummus

My hummus is never the same two times in a row. And I am guessing at the measurement of all of the ingredients, and sometimes I don't use all of them.  

I use everything above the line every time.  Things below the line.. I use all or sometimes.
1 equivalent can of chickpeas. I normally have pints canned or cooked frozen.
 1-4T lemon juice
1-2T olive oil
1-2Ttahini
1T garlic
1t salt (I normally use garlic salt, and I have no clue how much I use)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1-2T flax seed
1/2-1t cumin
1/2-1t smoked paprika.
1/4c greek yogurt (if you want)

If I am using canned chickpeas then I reserve a little of the liquid back in case I need to thin it a little to blend it.  If I am using frozen then I just use water to blend it.

Blend and serve, then refrigerate.

Chili Soup

 omg.. how can I not have the chili recipe out here.

This is a loose description. 

onion & carrots
1lb browned ground meat
3 can chili beans (I normally make from dry in advance)
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained (I normally have made from dry in advance)
1 can of diced tomatoes (or 2, just depends on how it looks and if it needs to stretch)

Then I used the taco season recipe for seasoning.
I loosely measure these ingredients for 1lb of ground meat.
1T chili powder (if you don't have enough then you can make it) 
2t cumin
1t salt
1/2t paprika (I like to use smoked)
1/4t garlic powder
1/4t onion powder
1/4t oregano
1/4t cayenne (I use a dash and not near this amount)

Then let it simmer down.

Serve with fritos, sour cream (plain greek yogurt) and shredded cheese.
