Holiday Foods - Hummus and Tabbouli

I just had to write about this one because the plate looked so beautiful! We made traditional hummus, but the tabbouli is made with quinoa instead of bulgur wheat. The bread is millet bread, so we were able to eat a beautiful and nutritious meal that fit within our diet. We made potato latkes for Hannukah, but we get a little tired of the traditional latkes for 8 nights, so this year we also made them with grated carrots. The combination of grated potatoes, grated carrots, and onions is really good! We don't use any eggs to hold then together - we must add a little flour to the veggies and cook them. This year we tried baking them instead of frying and they turned out wonderfully! For New Year's Eve we made Chinese food - veggies and some spring rolls. So much good food, so little time...
