I fortuitously stumbled upon this treat when I included too much cooking liquid in the chickpeas when I squished them. The texture was more like soup than hummus.

I grabbed some cashews and threw them in the blender with a clove of garlic and 1/4 tsp curry powder.

I have no real clue as to the proportions. I think it was about 3:1 chickpeas to cashews.

Anyway, I will be making this mistake again on purpose, because the result was delicious. Super nutty, a little sweet, and very garlicky and spicy.

I made some wraps on orphan tortillas from the last time I had soft tacos. I spread the hummus on lacinato kale leaves laying on the tortillas, rolled them up, cut into thirds (to fit in Mr. Bento), and skewered with toothpicks.

The rest, I just slathered on fresh raw local lacinato kale leaves, rib and all. Nom nom nom.

I recently acquired a factory refurbished Vitamix 5200 Super. Suffice it to say I am in love.

Tonight I made a delicious juice that glows green such that I may call it Krank.

I packed the following in the big container:

• grapes, green, a little over a cup
• lacinato kale, two leaves, stems included, torn into several pieces
• celery stalks, 2, washed and broken into thirds
• cucumber, 1/2, cut into 4 thick rounds
• apple, Gala, past its prime, cut into 8ths
• ice, 1 cup

Blend for 2 minutes or so and drink the glow. Yum.
