Yes, it's pumpkin pie bread, or sweet potato/apple bread if you use my other recipe, so you may think this is a Fall-only treat. Think again! A handful of fresh berries means that this is perfect Summer fare, and you can use frozen bounty for after the leaves turn.

Turned from a banana gingerbread loaf by Nicole (http://tinyurl.com/mt44s4) into mini-cupcakes for easier transport and lunchbox packing! I changed the name to a "spice" rather than "ginger" cake because with all the flavours in the batter it's impossible to pick out just one!
The goodness of fresh cilantro, garlic, lemon balm and lime finds a home with roasted peppers, tomatoes, Egyptian onion and a good hit of lime in this delectable condiment. Tortilla chips optional - carrot "planks" are equally awesome!

These are bite sized crispy chocolate cookies that are perfect to mix into pudding, fudge or even fruit salad!
This is almost - almost - my grandpa's famous garlicky hummus. I don't bother buying tahini since it just sits in the fridge after 1 use and goes bad, so I came up with using the ground sesame instead. I had a batch of mixed ground sesame and flax on hand, so thats what I used. This definitely tastes best when you've used home-cooked chickpeas!
All the comfort and joy of the traditional holiday snaps, but without corn, dairy, eggs, or gluten!

I made these with my cooking program kids at the Boys and Girls club. They're reminiscent of the cinnamon breadsticks you find at Domino's, but more fun to make and better for you! Serve them warm with my "Sweet Fruit Dipper": http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-deta
