Strawberry Popovers (Gluten-free!)

Strawberry Popovers (Gluten-Free!)
Strawberry season has just passed us here in North Carolina, but the kids and I will be heading to New England soon where the berries are looking beautiful right about now!  Strawberries and popovers - better yet, strawberries and strawberry popovers - seemed like a great combination for an afternoon snack...

I love popovers. I grew up eating them as a special treat and, when I started eating gluten free, I did not think that I would ever enjoy them again. Thankfully, I haven't had to tweak my original recipe very much to continue to enjoy these yummy, bready treats.

Green Garlic Scape Hummus

Green Garlic Scape Hummus
If you have never made your own hummus, today might be your day. This is one of the easiest snacks that you could possibly make and, when you are done, you will wow everyone when you tell them that it is homemade. The main ingredient in hummus is chickpeas. I always keep canned chickpeas on hand. All the time. They are great for snacking, roasting, tossed in salads, and, of course, for making hummus.
