Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • Juice and zest of 1 lime
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, combine the drained chickpeas, olive oil, honey, lime juice, lime zest, chili powder, cayenne pepper, and salt. Toss until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the chickpeas in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through, until they are crispy and golden.
  5. While the chickpeas are roasting, prepare the cilantro dip by mixing Greek yogurt, chopped cilantro, lime juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl until smooth and well combined.
  6. Once the chickpeas are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving with the cilantro dip.

Notes

For a vegan alternative: Substitute Greek yogurt with a vegan yogurt or avocado-based dip.

For an extra kick, consider adding more chili powder or a splash of hot sauce to the chickpeas before roasting. If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the amount of cayenne pepper.

These roasted chickpeas can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week, although they are best enjoyed fresh. For serving, try pairing them with fresh vegetables or using the dip as a spread for sandwiches!

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 cups water
  • 4 black tea bags
  • 2 cups apple juice
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Ice cubes
  • Apple slices for garnish
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Boil 4 cups of water in a large pot.
  2. Once the water is boiling, remove it from heat and add the black tea bags. Let steep for 5-7 minutes.
  3. Remove the tea bags and stir in the apple juice, ground cinnamon, and cinnamon stick.

If you’re looking for a less sweet option, you can reduce the amount of apple juice or use unsweetened apple cider. This drink is also delightful when made with a touch of honey or agave syrup if you prefer a natural sweetener.

Store any leftover iced tea in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When ready to serve, just add fresh ice and garnish with additional apple slices for an eye-catching presentation.

Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon lime zest
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • Extra shredded coconut for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, shredded coconut, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.
  3. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together sweetened condensed milk, fresh lime juice, and lime zest until smooth.
  5. In another bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the lime mixture until fully combined.
  6. Pour the lime and cream filling into the cooled graham cracker crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
  7. Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or until set.
  8. Before serving, garnish with extra shredded coconut and lime slices, if desired. Slice and enjoy!

Notes

Tip: For a more intense coconut flavor, you can use coconut cream instead of heavy cream in the filling.

For the best flavor, use freshly squeezed lime juice rather than bottled juice. If you want a little extra coconut flavor, consider toasting some unsweetened shredded coconut and sprinkling it on top before serving.

This pie can be made a day in advance; just keep it covered in the refrigerator to maintain freshness. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 oz dark chocolate, chopped
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons brewed espresso
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate and butter together in 30-second intervals until smooth. Stir well after each interval.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg yolks, and sugar until pale and slightly thickened.
  4. Add the melted chocolate mixture to the egg mixture, stirring to combine.
  5. Gently fold in the flour, espresso, vanilla extract, and salt until just combined.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins, filling them about 3/4 full.
  7. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are firm but the center is still soft.

To prevent sticking, make sure to properly grease your ramekins. If you want to prepare these in advance, you can refrigerate the unbaked cakes and bake them just before serving.

Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 120g almond flour
  • 200g powdered sugar
  • 100g egg whites (about 3 large eggs)
  • 50g granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp culinary lavender, finely ground
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • Lavender-infused honey for filling

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, sift together almond flour and powdered sugar to eliminate lumps.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with salt until foamy. Gradually add granulated sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form.
  4. Gently fold the almond flour mixture and ground lavender into the meringue until just combined, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
  5. Transfer the macaron batter to a piping bag and pipe small circles onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each.
  6. Tap the baking sheet on the counter to release air bubbles, then let the macarons sit for 30-60 minutes until a skin forms.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until the macarons have risen and formed feet. Allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet.
  8. Once cooled, pair the macarons and fill with lavender-infused honey using a piping bag. Sandwich them together gently.

Notes

Storage: Store macarons in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. They often taste better a day after filling.

When making macarons, ensure that your egg whites are at room temperature to help achieve the perfect meringue. Sift the almond flour and powdered sugar together to avoid any lumps for a smoother batter.

If you want to enhance the lavender flavor, consider using culinary-grade lavender or infusing the honey longer. Macarons can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week; they often taste better after a day as the flavors meld.

  3. While the farro is cooking, prepare the vegetables: chop the tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, red onion, parsley, and mint in a large mixing bowl.
