Teddy's Tallow Chips began as a solution for Teddy's food allergies, with his mother Katherine cooking potatoes in beef tallow to create a safe snack.
I've tasted my way through seven of Ithaca's hummus flavors, and I've come to one definitive conclusion: The brand makes some seriously good hummus. However, some flavors are better than others. I've ranked these hummus varieties from worst to best in an attempt to help you find the flavor you want to try most (or at least let you know what to avoid).
One isn't necessarily more nutritious than the other. They're just different foods. Peanut butter comes from a legume and almond butter comes from a tree nut, but nutritionally they're fairly similar. Both provide mostly healthy fats along with a little protein and fiber.
These Roll-Ups are held together with heavy cream and cream cheese mixed with crab and pistachios. It almost has a sweet flavor and is the perfect contrast with the savory ham. The filling adds tons of flavor and gives the roll-ups a little texture. A delicious bite-size appetizer that can be dressed up on a nice platter or served as a snack on a paper plate.
Trying the oil, I found this cold-pressed EVOO's taste was superior to the others, noted flavors of freshly cut grass, wild artichoke, and fruity green apple. The mouthfeel of this oil was also a huge help in getting it the number one spot. Compared to some of the other olive oils in the tasting, which were lacking in the unctuous, rich texture, Specially Selected's smooth, buttery mouthfeel was a memorable part of the tasting experience.
The shape and size of mini bell peppers make them the perfect vessel for this handheld party snack. The filling for these vegan poppers is sweet, crunchy and a little juicy, with a hint of spice from Tajin seasoning-an addictive Mexican-style blend of chili, salt, and dehydrated lime juice. You can assemble these poppers a day ahead of time and store them in the fridge until ready to serve.
Soaked and blended, cashews become a stand-in for heavy cream, keeping stuffed shells, soups, pasta sauces, and desserts luxuriously dairy-free. Toasted and roughly chopped, they add crunch to salads, curries, stir-fries, and more. There are so many reasons to love cooking with these seeds-that's right, "cashew nut" is technically a misnomer, since they grow outside the fruit rather than inside a hard shell like true nuts.
These candied nuts have become one of the cornerstones. You can make them with whatever nuts you have on hand, they keep beautifully for over a week, and they're an easy win as part of a larger snack-y spread. They also bridge the sweet-savory gap wonderfully and I've been serving them with a range of spreads, flatbread, and other bite-sized sweet treats.
Dynamic duo beans and greens come together again in this pantry-friendly soup. Toasted garlic, tomato paste, and smoked paprika boost store-bought vegetable stock (use a base like Better Than Bouillon for superior potency) into a rich broth. Chickpeas and Swiss chard hang on to their texture in the brew, but use whichever white beans and hearty greens speak to you.
A sandwich might sound like a "boring" meal, but these vegetarian sandwiches are anything but uninspired! I've spent years testing different combinations of veggie sandwich fillings in my kitchen, and over the years I've collected my favorite ideas for making meatless lunches and dinners. These vegetarian sandwiches have become my go-to's for quick weeknight dinners and healthy lunches that actually make me look forward to the meal.
This delicious, dairy-free alternative to classic tomato soup delivers the same comfort as the original, thanks to a surprising store-bought ingredient: hummus. This dairy-free tomato soup delivers the same comfort and creaminess as the classic thanks to a surprising store-bought ingredient. Everything happens in one pot here. The canned tomatoes are simmered with aromatics and spices for a flavorful base, and at the end, a heaping cup of hummus is added to the mix, thickening the soup to a beautiful, velvety consistency.
