Hobo-Pack Rosemary Potatoes

Anyone can do this! Cut up some potatoes, a clove of garlic a little olive oil salt and pepper and toss to coat. Place a sprig of Rosemary and fold up the foil. Toss your Hobo-Pack on the grill, medium heat, with your steak or beer can chicken. After about 25 min open pack and test a spud with a knife. If you can put a knife in and it can slide off on it's own they are done.

Enjoy!

White Bean Hummus

I will be one of the peoples that will turn his nose up at Hummus. Not because Hummus itself is bad, its just that I have eaten some really nasty Hummus before. Unless I know the source I would rather make it myself.

Here is a really simple White Bean Hummus. This recipe begs to be modified to your desires.

White Bean Hummus
1 15oz Can Small White Beans
1/3 Cup nice oil such as Extra Virgin Olive Oil or Walnut
4 or so Garlic Cloves Sliced
1-2 Tablespoons Fresh Herbs chopped fine (rosemary, thyme, oregano etc..or a combination)
A squeeze of Lemon Juice
1/2 Cup of grated Parmesan or Romano Cheese
Salt and Pepper

In a small sauce pan add the oil, herbs and garlic. Cook over medium heat until fragient and slightly golden.

Meanwhile empty the drained and rinsed can of beans into the food processor, along with the squeeze of lemon and a little salt and pepper.

Once the oil herb mix is done pour that into the food processor and puree until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning as you wish.

Smear some on a crusty piece of bread or to the thin crust pizza of your dreams and enjoy.

Another good idea: Make a little extra herb and garlic infused oil. Save some of that (removing the garlic) and brush onto both sides your bread slices and grill until golden brown. Then put that fantastic White Bean Hummus on it.

Enjoy!
