Having been to Israel numerous times and having tried hummus all over the country, I find this hummus recipe pretty close to what you would find there. To save time, I use canned garbanzo beans, but friends...
I am not sure if that is how you spell it! I saw the recipe in "The Great Book of Couscous" and they called it Karantika. This is popular in Algeria (and made in my house a few times per week). It is best...
I received this recipe from a friend at work. Love this recipe because it is delicious and works up in a few minutes. Just the right touch of sweet vs. savory. Cook time is actually refrigerator time.
Use in place of normal mayo if you want that extra zing on your burger. This is VERY flavorful and stands up well with any sandwich, really. You can substitute from-the-jar roasted chipotle peppers.
This recipe has been handed down for 3 generations. It is the perfect shrimp dip to bring to parties or if you are entertaining. When i first made this for my fiance he could not stop eating it. Its Very...
This "shmear kase" (smear cheese if translated literally) is an Amish recipe in this area. This is served at Amish weddings and church dinners - and of course in many homes year-round! It is generally...
This is a classic appetizer that is great for last minute unexpected guests. In fact, I'm surprised it's not posted yet! I've made this for years. The sweet and hot taste on crackers is so wonderful!
Remember the layered taco dip everybody loves? Well, here's a Mediterranean version for you! Very, very tasty! Prep time includes chilling. This dip took a bit of work... I first posted it at Gail's way...
This is an appetizer I made for Mother's Day this year. I used as a base, the cashew cream recipe from Color Me Vegan, and then added some extra garlic and nutritional yeast to give it a bit more cheezy...
I have tried a lot of hummus recipes, and this one is a combination of a few of my favorites, and is now the only one I use. I grow my own little Super Hot Chili Peppers and so that is what I use, but...
This is as close the real McCoy as you can get. This is a keeper!! I came up with this after much trial and error. Very easy to make and highly addictive! I recommend using good quality fresh prepared...
This addictive dip is from the July '09 Cooking Light issue. I served this for dipping with pita chips and also with bread cubes. It makes a WONDERFUL sandwich spread - we put it on a turkey sandwich....
You will not BELIEVE the flavor of this spread till you try it! It creates a taste explosion in your mouth and makes you think you're in sunny Greece. Serve with crackers or pita crisps.
Easy and savory spread that only gets better as it ages. I always include the garlic and shallots but mix it up with whatever fresh herbs I have on hand. Other herbs I've used that worked well include...
Try serving this "schmear" with some fresh bagels at your next brunch. You could add a tablespoon or so of fresh chopped dill or parsley or even a couples of tablespoons of drained capers, but I like it...
The base hummus recipe is one of my favorite recipes from Mark Bittman's, How To Cook Everything. One day I realized that I didn't have enough olive oil so used the oil from a jar of marinated artichoke...
My grandmom used to serve this tangy yummy dip with celery. It makes a huge difference to use a high quality, strong blue cheese - if you use the cheap supermarket stuff this can be on the mild (I'd say...
Spicy! Try using this on grilled chicken or rubbing some on corn on the cob. If you like spicy popcorn, try melting some of this and pouring it over your next batch. Easy to freeze and use when you need...
If you love hummus, you will enjoy this version very much. If you don't love hummus, you will still enjoy this sweet, savory dip/spread because the flavor of the roasted onions, peppers and eggplant shines...
I looked for a long time for an acceptable substitute to Underwood's Devilled Ham, and this is really close! It's also called potted meat. I buy a smoked ham shank and use part of the ham for this. You...
This is QUICK, EASY and DELICIOUS. It is also a great way to use up leftover ham, or make a wonderful hors d'oeuvre. This recipe was developed jointly by Alan Leonetti & Dean Ramsey. If you have any questions,...
This is a favorite appetizer at every family function. It is especially well received with cocktails! It is similar to pepper jelly, but you do not need pectin. We usually serve it with crackers spread...
My mom gave me this recipe years ago. I don't think I've ever made this and not had someone ask for the recipe. I have had more "Can you make your cheese ball?" requests than I care to count. I don't really...
This has got to be one of the most delcious recipes! It is yet another chopped liver recipe which is wonderful. Courtesy of Barefoot Contessa Parties (2001) - Ina Garten. Television Food Network, G.P....
After you cook the liver and fry the onions, this takes really only minutes to make and is one of the best recipes for chopped liver! After you process your cooked chicken use about 1/4 cup of the chicken...

We use this spread on bagels, toast, tortilla roll ups and for sandwiches. Since applesauces / apple butter and peanut butter vary by brands you'll have to adjust for the differences regionally. This recipe...
