Turn everyday hummus into something swoon-worthy. It's as easy as blending in cooked sweet potato, which not only adds a rich deep hue but also pumps up flavour and boosts nutrients. It still makes a great appetizer, or you can use it as the base for a protein-packed vegetarian dinner salad. Trust us, you won't miss the meat.
Dukkah is a blend of spices, nuts and seeds that makes a flavourful crust for grilled chicken and helps lock in moisture. Look for it in Middle Eastern grocery stores.
Every cookie tray needs a standout treat that's anything but cookie-cutter, so make this yours! Choose thick dulce de leche, the caramelized sweetened condensed milk commonly used in South American desserts, for the best texture.
Along with the Chopped Liver Pâté and Apple Walnut Chutney, this delicious hors d'oeuvre is perfect for your appetizer platter. If you're not making this for Passover and are lucky enough to have any of this creamy dip left over, it makes a great sandwich spread or pita filling. For a chunky texture, pulse all the ingredients in a food processor instead of puréeing them.
A cross between falafel and a veggie burger, these savoury patties make a hearty meal. Quinoa flakes act as a binding agent and ramp up the protein content, too.
No party is complete without chips and dip. This dip has za'atar, a Middle Eastern spice blend, which can be found in most grocery stores. Check the expiration date on the walnuts you're buying to ensure they are fresh. Soaking them overnight gets rid of the astringency that some people don't like, so give this recipe a try – even if you think you don't like walnuts!
