Hummus - it's what's for breakfast...

Everyone at Casa de Spryte needs to lighten up a bit. (well... except Bob) If you're a regular reader of my blog... you've seen the endless parade of fried stuff and stuff covered in cheese... plus all the baked stuff!

Anyway... I've been trying to eat a healthier breakfast at home lately. (as opposed to driving through Wendy's or McDonald's for a Chicken Biscuit or McSkillet Burrito; which I do FAR too often)

I had some hummus left over from Baba D's. Their hummus is so creamy and delicious. It's a gazillion times better than the hummus I make at home.

I also had a gorgeous tomato, half a cucumber and my favorite flat bread.

It's not like me to go meatless. I usually like lean turkey or chicken for breakfast. But I decided to make a veggie wrap for breakfast today.

I LOVE these... they're always very soft and pliable.

Have a great weekend!

    I need to lighten up too (as I eat a piece of carrot cake with cream cheese frosting). Love the crack cilantro.

    Funny, cause cilantro is like crack to me (well, I imagine it is, anyway)... But, yum...this is a great idea. Hubby & I love hummus and it looks perfect snuggled into this "wrap"!

    Crack cilantro-ha ha! Mine is in a pot and won't grow, and neither will my basil, chives or oregano. Maybe I need to shove it in some cracks?

    I loved hummus before I developed a wee bit of an allergy. Still, I can appreciate a breakfast like this!

    I'm watching out for my crack cilantro - last year they were all over but it may still be too early here. Fingers crossed!

    I like savoury breakfasts and having hummus for breakfast sounds good.
