    Made the Classic Hummus and my family loved it!

Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Italian vegetable soup

    • kristi357 on February 14, 2026

      OK recipe. Tasty but not exciting. I added a small piece of parmesan rind while cooking and I think that made the flavor richer

  • Moroccan chickpea soup

    • esther_iqmro0 on January 19, 2026

      It's OK but not mind-blowing. I used a different potato variety that required more cooking time so that may have affected my opinion of this dish.

  • Warm cabbage salad with chicken

    • lisari on May 17, 2025

      This was really good, love the dressing. I used a bag of cole slaw mix for the cabbage & carrots.

  • Thai grilled-steak salad

    • SACarlson on June 28, 2019

      The ingredient proportions in the dressing recipe are all off. There are better recipes for Thai beef salad out there, so I would skip this one.

  • Lentils with spinach and garlic chips

    • Shewi128 on September 19, 2023

      I cooked these lentils along with pork that had similar spices. I used brown lentils, and they cooked faster than the recipe expected, so check for tenderness of the lentils. I didn't use spinach. I'd make these again.

  • Chicken baked in foil with fennel, carrots, and orange

    • kristi357 on January 14, 2026

      Baked in a foil-covered pan instead of foil packets. Worked well. Used parsnips instead of fennel.

  • Pomegranate-glazed chicken breasts with farro salad

    • lisari on July 01, 2025

      Very good. Used boneless, skinless breasts. Would make again.

  • Cumin-crusted chicken thighs with cauliflower couscous

    • esther_iqmro0 on January 22, 2026

      Very tasty and stupidly easy.

  • Chicken pot pie

    • cottonmama on January 18, 2022

      I only made the filling, because we could not get puff pastry, and then topped it with biscuits. I feel like the flavors were a little blander than my regular pot pie recipe. Next time I would add a splash of lemon juice. I think homemade chicken stock would also make a difference here. If you don't need to limit dairy fat, I would recommend using a filling recipe where you brown the flour in butter before adding the broth. You don't get less carbs with the thickening method used in this recipe, just less dairy fat. You may still want to use the puff pastry topping for a lower carb crust. I was worried that the soy sauce would stand out (it smelled like it would, when you added it), but it all blended together nicely, and the soy sauce had nothing to do with my disappointment in the end result.

    • gabe_nlq1d8 on January 24, 2026

      Yummy and easy to put together! I added a bag of frozen mixed veg and it was great.

  • Grilled spiced pork skewers with onion and caper relish

    • Shewi128 on September 18, 2023

      The flavor was complex and delicious. I loved the spiced marinade, and the caper onion relish really even made it better. However, what we didn't love was the cut of the pork. Maybe something else wouldn't end up so tough? I'd make this again, but with a different cut of meat.

  • Pomegranate roasted salmon with lentils and chard

    • Londonyankee on April 27, 2019

      Easy and beautiful looking! Will definitely make again

  • Creamy chipotle chile sauce

    • Acarroll on January 27, 2024

      I was looking for a way to use leftover chipotles in adobo and this was perfect. I didn't have sour cream so I doubled the amount of (vegan) mayo. I also doubled the amount of chipotle, garlic, and cilantro. Was perfect served with crab cakes.

  • Halibut baked in foil with tomatoes and zucchini

    • esther_iqmro0 on January 20, 2026

      Really good. I used salmon and made it in the air-fryer (15 minutes at 200ºC) and it came out perfect.

  • Eggplant involtini

    • esther_iqmro0 on January 28, 2026

      Really good. I used cottage cheese instead of ricotta and used the food processor to blend it and it came out perfect.
