Yep. Still here, still blogging, and still eating for two
Baby BBB continues to thrive in utero, extremely well, and at our appointment today there was no indication that she is coming early. Rather, the race is now on as I found out my doctor is away as of next Tuesday, so fingers crossed she at least makes her appearance before then. I continue see a lot of walking and spicy food in my future. Last weekend we had what we thought might be our last dinner with friends as a couple (although it could very possibly be that we now have this weekend as well!) A simple BBQ was on the menu, and with the main course being taken care of by our friends, I decided to make a dip to share beforehand. A sundried tomato hummus.
And it really could not have been simpler. Just chickpeas, garlic, paprika, tahini, lemon juice, oil, water and of course, the sundried tomatoes.
Processed until smooth and creamy.
Sprinkled with a little paprika…
And an extra splash of olive oil…
Loaded with rice crackers…
And the sundried tomato dip was done.
Doesn’t get much quicker or simpler than that
But now, time for a walk and some curry
Sundried tomato hummus
- 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1.5 tbs tahini
- 100g sundried tomatoes
- 1 tbs lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1-2 tbs olive oil + extra
- 1-2 tbs water
- 1 tsp paprika + extra
- Process all ingredients in a food processor until smooth and creamy. Add more oil / water if needed in order to reach desired consistency.
- Transfer to a serving bowl, and sprinkle with extra paprika and olive oil.
What about you? Are you a fan of flavoured hummus?

Lisa, I think your hummus is amazing. So little Miss BBB is staying put for now, eh? Wishing you safety and godspeed for a safe delivery when the time comes xx
This looks delicious Lisa! I don't usually like sun dried tomatoes, but in hummus I think I'd be a convert.
I hope Miss BBB appears before your doctor goes! Although I'm sure you'll have great care regardless, I imagine it would be much nicer to know the person working with you!
It must be so crazy waking up each morning not knowing if there'll be three of you that night!!
this is my favorite hummus flavor but I've never actually made it for myself- I need to try this!
It sounds perfect!
If you go into labour…good luck:)
lovely hummus – love variations on hummus though Sylvia at the moment just wants "white" hummus so there are less interesting versions around our kitchen
ooh, this is one of my favorites 🙂 love a quick and easy appetizer like this, too!
yum, this looks delicious 🙂 when will this bubba arrive!!
Can't wait to try this! 😀
Can't wait till you have your baby, either. I'm so excited for you. Looking forward to pics!
Awesome! I love the versatility of hummus.
I love flavoured hummus! And you're right, it's simple but delicious! 😀 Crossing my fingers for you and baby BBB making an appearance soon!
Oh, I love hummus! With freshly cut carrot sticks I just can't have enough… The flavour of the added sundried tomato is great.
So yummy indeed! Perfect for sharing with friends 🙂
