Fiesta Grilled Chicken Salad
I came up with this delicious meal salad after I found I was all too often relying on prepackaged deli salads that were too expensive and not always the freshest. This is quick and easy, can be prepared ahead and scaled up or down depending on the servings needed.
Sugar Spanish Peanuts
For this recipe, sugar Spanish peanuts are coated in hardened sugar and great for snacking! For an added kick, you can add cayenne pepper to the peanuts while they cook. Peanuts will be very hot, so do not handle them with bare hands!
Chocolate Hummus
Chocolate hummus is so delicious and full of chocolate, no one will ever know you made it with chickpeas! Try it for dessert with fresh fruit, cookies, crackers, or even by the spoonful!
