Easy Hummus Recipe

beach party food Pictured here are multi-grain pita chips served in new bright green sand bucket lined with a polka-dot orange napkin.

The hummus is in a little sand toy I bought at Target.

You can buy premade hummus or you can make your own.

Using a food processor add:

1 15 oz Can of Chickpeas - drained, but reserve liquid

2 Cloves Garlic minced

Juice of 1 Lemon

1/2 Teaspoon Sea Salt

2 Tablespoons Virgin Olive Oil

Cilantro or Parsley Leaves

Mix to the consistency that you like. If it needs more liquid add some of the liquid from the drained chickpeas.

Cold Salad Recipes

beach party food We often serve salads at our pool parties and one of our favorites is chicken salad.

If I am in a rush, I buy it from our local grocery store.

Made with red grapes and celery it is really tasty. Serve it with a slice of cantaloupe and a bunch of green grapes.

Beach Party Cake

beach party cake Serve fun cupcakes for your beach party dessert.

Wrap a colorful cupcake wrapper around the cupcake and top it with a "beach umbrella."

Use brown colored sugar as sprinkles or just use a bright color like green, blue or orange.

If you decide to make your own cupcakes, I found that store bought frosting works better than homemade frosting. On a warm or hot day, homemade frosting melts and the cupcakes don't look very fresh. The store bought frosting stays in place and looks fresh so you can keep the cupcakes outside until they are ready to be served.

Place the cupcakes in a cupcake stand and use it as a centerpiece.
