Loaded Vegan Hummus Bowls For the Hummus:
1 cup dried chickpeas (or 2 cups cooked/canned chickpeas)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda (if using dried chickpeas)
1/3 cup tahini (sesame paste)
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
2-4 tablespoons ice water
2 tablespoons olive oil
For the Bowl:
1 cup quinoa (cooked according to package instructions)
1 cup red cabbage, shredded
1 carrot, grated
1 small cucumber, sliced
1 avocado, sliced
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup olives, sliced
Fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped
Lemon wedges, for serving
Additional olive oil, for drizzling
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Hummus:
If using dried chickpeas: Soak the chickpeas overnight in plenty of water. Drain and rinse, then boil with 1/2 teaspoon baking soda for about 45 minutes or until tender. Drain and cool.
Blend the hummus ingredients: In a food processor, combine the cooked chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, and salt. Process until smooth. Slowly add ice water and continue to process until the hummus becomes creamy. Drizzle in olive oil and blend until incorporated.
2. Assemble the Bowls:
Prepare the vegetables: While the chickpeas are cooking, prepare the quinoa and chop all the vegetables.
Build the bowl: Start with a base of quinoa. Add a generous dollop of hummus in the center. Arrange the red cabbage, carrot, cucumber, avocado, cherry tomatoes, and red onion around the hummus.
Garnish and serve: Top with sliced olives and fresh herbs. Drizzle with additional olive oil and squeeze a lemon wedge over it. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Tips:
Variations: You can add other vegetables like roasted red peppers or artichokes, or include nuts and seeds for extra texture.
Flavor boosts: For a spicy hummus, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a swirl of sriracha. You can also infuse more flavor into your quinoa by cooking it in vegetable broth instead of water.

50 KITCHEN WITCH TIPS TO MAKE YOU FEEL MORE WITCHY
(And other useful things I've learned over the years)
Hi! This is a list of dos, don'ts, tips, tricks, and other fun things that I've learned over the years. I always love finding more effective and efficient ways of doing things so if you have any cool things you'd like to add, leave them in the comments or reblog. I'd love to read it.
Anyways... On with the list ^_^
Light candles around your kitchen space (just make sure nothing flammable is near you)
Annotate your cookbooks with the correspondence of the ingredients.
Mediating is really good to calm the mind before cooking.
Cut oranges and lemons thinly, dry them, and hang them with twine around your kitchen
Need a cleansing tip? Open all your windows near your kitchen. Let some fresh air in.
Cutting sigils into apples, pie crusts, and carved potatoes.
Save lemon and orange rinds, freeze them, and then use them to clean the garbage disposal.
Make infused oils and honey: Things like garlic honey, lavender honey, herb oil, sun oil, moon oil, dandelion oil, and other different edible oils are very fun and useful to make.
Hid sigils in pages of your cookbooks and kitchen witch journals.
Add some plants! Snake plants and spider plants don't need too much light, and growing your own herbs in your kitchen is awesome too. Basil, lavender, thyme, aloe vera, rosemary, etc. are good fits. You could also add some plants that require more sunlight on the kitchen window sill. Like cacti and succulents.
Bring crystals into your kitchen space such as rose quartz, clear quartz, amethyst, or whatever you want the space's intentions to be.
I keep a small money tree on the sill, along with cacti for luck and protection.
Make a simmer Pot! Mostly because it makes the whole house smell good, easy, and fun.
Stir clockwise for best results!
Learning how to pickle things is actually pretty witchy. Plus, anyone could do it as it requires absolutely no kitchen experience. You could pickle any vegetable, even if you don't like pickles. I originally learned this after having to take shelter from a natural disaster. A person brought a bunch of stuff and taught us how to pickle things with different spices and herbs. Very fun!
Decorate your kitchen with your favorite stuff. Crystals, decor, heat mits, that cool mushroom cake stand you've been eyeing at the World Market for the past 2 weeks, cool looking curtains, sun catchers. Why stop there? Paint the walls, hang shelves full of marked-up cookbooks that are a little too well-loved and thumbed through.
Wanna be the person that has the amazing-smelling house every time people come over? Syrups take some time to simmer down, it's actually a pretty good time to leave it on the stove to simmer. Since syrups have a lot of aromatic ingredients, it acts as a really good-smelling simmer pot.
Hang up herbs to dry with twine from cabinets that are rarely used.
Invest in that new set of plates and cups.
Homemade jams, butter, sauces, and syrups are your best friend.
Crochet or knit your own dish rags, pot holders, etc.
Don't pour extremely hot things into a glass that's not Pyrex, it will break, and you will be very sad about it.
Don't cook anything while extremely upset or emotional (For safety reasons)
Make recipes you want to make, not just because you'll like the effect. Make it because you think it's tasty.
Chinese Five Spice works in place of herbs for protection and luck spells a lot of the time! It's cheaper to buy 1 spice than 4 different spices that total up to 15 dollars when you could just spend 3-4 dollars.
Take a shower before cooking (I don't know how to explain this one other than it makes you feel better)
Don't use microfiber/plastic material clothes on hot burners, it will fuse to the burner and melt. It is VERY hard to get off.
I don't know if I need to put this one but I did see someone do it so nonstick pan = wooden utensils and plastic utensils, metal pan = metal utensils. Do not use a metal spoon in a nonstick pan, please. It can make you very sick.
Keep your pets away from hot oil, open ovens, and hot pans.
You can proof bread dough in the fridge overnight if you don't have the time to bake, or want to eat fresh bread right in the morning.
Need a quick witchy meal for dinner in 12 minutes? Use premade tomato pasta sauce and doctor it up with thyme, rosemary, and garlic, for protection and distilling stagnant energies. Serve with pasta of your liking.
You can substitute Butter for Crisco/shortening, buttermilk for 1 cup of milk + 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar or lemon juice, and heavy cream for 1 cup of half and half plus 2 tbsp of butter.
Use leftover animal bones to make bone broth
Teach yourself the art of bread scoring (It's fun, and you can show it off to your loved ones!)
Collect and hoard your own and others' family recipes.
Sometimes the food doesn't have to be a spell, sometimes it just makes you feel good and you don't know why.
Listen to your favorite music in the kitchen, it makes the monotonous things like chopping veggies move faster.
Invest in a vegetable chopper if you don't like chopping vegetables.
Find a really good hot cocoa recipe and make it once a week. Master it. Just for your own happiness because hot cocoa is really good. You could also be the friend/family member that makes the best hot cocoa ever.
Focaccia Bread Lasts a very long time, and it's very easy to make!
Keep a first aid kit near where the oven is, in case of burns, cuts, or serious injuries where time is everything.
Quick Bread and no-rise loaves are simple for beginners, tasty, and take little time. They also feel very witchy to make.
Study a bit of Herbalism! It's fun and really helps better understand the herbs you're putting into your food.
While something is boiling, put your wooden spoon over the pot to minimize the chance of something boiling over.
Try a bit of coffee magick, it's simple to get into, and gives you a boost of energy to take on the day!
If you're over 21, wine-making is a very interesting way to celebrate the sabbats. Just with that, make sure you KNOW what you're doing. With anything fermented, there's always a risk if you don't store things correctly. Apple wines, strawberry wines, dandelion wines, etc. all very cool to experiment with. If you're not over 21, vinegar is a similar way to experiment.
Hang up some witchy things, sigils, photos, cool magnets, and other things that give you joy on your fridge. (Sometimes if you are lucky they have some fun magnets at five below)
If you live in the US, for some reason, there are a lot of books in the book section dedicated to witchcraft and spirituality. At least where I live. And they are all under 5 dollars!
Teas are the cheapest and easiest things you can practice being a kitchen witch.

Brunch at Provisions in Downtown Vallejo. Featured here are the Chicken and Waffle with Egg and Bacons, the Korean Bowl with Bulgogi Chicken, and Tuna Melt with Fries. It wasn’t all that bad though I’d rather not have Brown Rice on the Korean Bowl. Maybe a different kind of rice? I am not much of a fan of brown rice… #foodie #foodporn #foodphotography #foodblogger #foodstagram #foodblog #foodblogfeed #foodbloggers #foodtravel #foodtrend #foodtrends #foodtripping #foodbeast #foodblogs #brunch #brunchtime #brunching #brunch🍴 #brunchgoals #brunchideas #brunchlover #brunchlover #brunchlovers

WITCHY SAGE BUTTER ROLLS
These things are really like garlic rolls meet cinnamon rolls but with delicious sage butter!
They are perfect if you have a little extra time on your hands, and can be served alone or with a dinner, stew, or any type of soup and it pairs pretty well.
Quite the crowd pleaser ^_^
INGREDIENTS
For the Tangzhong:
2 tablespoons  bread flour
2 tablespoons water
4 tablespoons whole milk
For the Bread:
4 cups Bread flour
4 tbsp sugar
1/3 cup milk
A full packet of Instant Dry Yeast
2 large eggs
Half a stick of Salted butter
Pinch of Salt
For the Egg Wash:
1 large egg
1 tbsp water
For the Sage Butter:
7 tbsp Salted butter
1 tsp garlic salt
2 tsp ground sage
1 tsp thyme
2 cloves minced garlic
DIRECTIONS:
Heat the Tangzhong ingredients over medium heat until they become very thick, about the consistency of a very thick brownie batter. It should be congealed enough so that it doesn't slide off the spatula very easily. This should take no longer than 5 minutes. Let it cool down completely (If you add it in hot, you will risk killing the yeast and the bread will not rise.
(What is Tangzhong?) Its a mixture of flour, milk, water that really steps up your game when it comes to the fluffiness of the rolls. Once you try adding this to your basic breads, you wont go back!
Bloom yeast in warm milk (Put in the microwave for about 15 seconds, it should be lukewarm, not hot. Add Flour, a pinch of salt, and sugar into a stand mixer with the dough hook attachment.
Crack egg and milk into the yeast and with the stand mixer’s dough hook attachment, mix into the flour mixture. Add in Tangzhong. Add butter 1 tablespoon at a time and mix until the dough is elastic. Then mix for another 5 minutes. If the dough looks too dry, add a tablespoon of water, and repeat until smooth. If it is too liquidy, add a couple pinches of flour.
Put the bread dough in a lightly greased medium bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise at room temperature for 2 hours. In the meantime, make your sage butter by beating your salted butter, garlic, and herbs.
Flour the workspace and roll the dough flat to about 1/4 inch thick. Smear all of your butter mixture onto the dough. Roll as you would a cinnamon roll, from the widest side of the rectangle to the other side.
Cover for 2 more hours for them to proof. Then combine egg and water to form your egg wash and brush it onto the rolls briefly before putting it in the oven. Put in the oven at 350 F for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
Enjoy!

I have discovered that I actually enjoy the story in a food blog if I am reading it in firefox. The lack of ads makes the pacing actually work, and the scrolling isn't too jumpy because of all the ad videos trying to load. Also, if I do just want to get straight to the recipe, it takes a lot less time.
Basically, ads ruin everything.
