Hummus Pita Pizza with Vegetables - Dairy Free, Soy Free and Vegan

This is such a quick and easy meal to make.  We grilled it on the barbecue for about 8 minutes but you can also bake it in the oven at 350°F for 8 to 10 minutes.
You can make your own hummus or use store bought hummus, whichever you prefer or have on hand.

This makes a wonderful meal when served with salad, but can also be served as an appetizer or snack.

Serves 1
Can easily be doubled or tripled, you get the idea.



3/4 cup chopped vegetables (I used green olives, mixed peppers and red onions)
4 tbsp hummus
1 whole wheat pita

1. Spread the hummus on the pita, use a generous amount.
2. Place the vegetables over the hummus and bake or heat over medium grill.
3. Cut in to pizze slices and serve.

Dairy Free Chocolate Pudding - Vegan, Soy Free, Gluten Free

Sorry, I have not been posted much, I am getting married next week and it has been incredibly busy.  This chocolate pudding is amazing, you will not be able to tell it is any different.  I found the recipe in Feeding Carl but I add non-dairy milk when I make it.

1/2 cup non-dairy milk of your choice, I used almond
1 tsp vanilla

1. Remove the peel and pit from avocados.
2. Place avocados, cocoa powder, maple syrup, non-dairy milk and vanilla in blender.  Blend until very smooth.  Spoon into bowls and place in fridge to chill until ready to serve.
