Lemon Basil Hummus – Vegetarian/Vegan Recipe

I used to always buy hummus, but now I prefer to make my own, since it requires very few simple ingredients, and only takes a couple of minutes to complete.

This Season’s Harvest Has Began

With all the frequent rain showers we experienced lately in our area, my garden is in its glory, and thriving.

My Organic Garden – Herbs, Fruits, Vegetables
