It feels like I’ve posted a bazillion and three humbelievable recipes over that last 3 1/2 years of this blog’s life.
Sometimes I post a recipe and it becomes part of my weekly rotation, and sometimes I post a recipe that I literally never make again. It’s not because I didn’t like the recipe. It’s because I’m a creature of habit and once I fall in love with a certain food, there’s no turning back. I pretty much eat Hummusapien food all the time in one way or another. I’m either making new recipes for blog material, prepping old recipes to eat throughout the week, or eating the classics at Alchemy. I can’t complain!
I know as well as anyone how overwhelming it can be to pick recipes from blogs when there’s so many amazing ones to choose from. I would freaking love it if my favorite blogger pals posted their personal favorite recipes so I didn’t have to do all the searching. HINT HINT.
I get asked all the time what my all-time favorite Hummusapien recipes are. That may sound like an easy question, but I assure you it is NOT. My recipes are kind of like my children. How can I pick favorites?
Welp, I’m about to.
1. Vegan Chocolate Banana Muffins
I literally make these every single week. They’re not your typical super carby muffin since they’re sweetened with dates and bananas and made with oat flour and almond meal rather than refined white flour. I usually pack two a day for work snackage. They’re moist, chocolately, and bursting with muffin perfection if you ask me. Plus, they’re SO easy. This is one of the few recipes I have memorized.
2. Baked Spaghetti with Mushrooms, Kale, and Tofu Ricotta
If you haven’t made this yet, you’re CAH-RAZY. It’s stupid easy and stupid delish. I literally think I could eat half the pan in one sitting. Actually, I know I could eat half the pan in one sitting. It’s just as satisfying if not more satisfying than any cheesy pasta dish you can dream of. It’s no wonder why it’s gotten such rave reviews!
3. Hearty Lentil, Kale, and Potato Soup
I love this soup because it’s totally a meal in a bowl. I make a big batch and rest assured that I’m getting a hefty dose of fiber, plant-powered protein, and phytonutrients.
4. Farro, Pomegranate, and Arugula Salad with Shallot Vinaigrette
I don’t know what it is about this salad, but I’m obsessed. The nutty farro, the sweet pomegranate seeds, and the spicy arugula make one helluva meal. I love salads that I can dress ahead of time and simply throw in a Tupperware for lunch.
5. Loaded Veggie Avocado Tuna Salad
EASY EASY EASY. Are you noticing a trend here? I recently whipped this up on Good Day Columbus and everyone was obsessed! The best part is that there’s no cooking involved. I love it smushed between a Vermont Bakery 100% whole wheat English muffin.
6. Chickpea Flour Breakfast Pizza
This is my go-to meal when I have nothing prepped because I pretty much always have eggs, chickpea flour, and salsa on hand. It’s like an explosion of flavor and texture! Do it.
7. Vegan Lentil, Kale, & Salsa Verde Enchiladas
This is not only one of my favorites, but it’s also a beloved recipe by you lovely readers! Everyone is always so shocked by how creamy these are. Thank you, madame cashew!
8. Beet, Green Bean, and Cannelini Salad with Dijon Dressing
This salad always gives me the warm and fuzzies because the base is all veggies. It comes together in about ten minutes and gets even better as it sits, thanks to the zesty dressing. Lunch is calling!

Cannot wait to have you personally make me those muffins. And the chickpea flour pizza.
Can you remove the chickpeas from the chickpea flour? 😉
CAN YOU MAKE ME TWENTY BATCHES OF HIGH PROTEIN NO SUGAR NO OIL NO SPLENDA NO LIES COOKIES. Then maybe I’ll remove the chickpeas. Maybe.

YES! I want it ALL. I was actually legit thinking about doing a top recipe post the other day after I remade a recipe that I haven’t made in forever and wondered “why the heck don’t I make this more often?!?!” <– if that made sense 😆 It's jut hard to remake older recipes when you're constantly trying to come up with new ones!
PS – I still owe you an e-mail 😯
That is so true. There’s always so much pressure for new recipes that who the hell has time to re-make old ones?!

I make the sweet potato lentil and kale detox salad or some version of it pretty often! I love that dressing!
So glad to hear that! I love the fresh herbs in there.

YES! I’m so glad the enchiladas made the list! Which reminds me… I need to make them again SOON.
The enchiladas are the clear reader favorite!

I must put in a shout out for Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins! I make a double batch, stash them in the freezer, and take one every single day! They bring me comfort during a long day at work, and due to the healthy ingredients, keep me going as well!
I always forget about those!! You should make the zucchini ones too 🙂

Such a fun idea! I’m the same way with my own recipes. Sometimes they’re one offs (still delish) but other times they’re in the weekly rotation. Loved hearing about your favs!
Glad you liked it, Georgie!

I love this post! I always wonder which recipes bloggers make over and over in the comfort of their own home. I’m the same way – I def have recipes I make time and again, and then there are plenty I button up and forget about entirely. I’m craving the crap out of that veggie avo salad, and I could see myself making those chocolate muffs on the weekly, too. And now I want to make all the Humbelievable recipes!

This is a fun little recap post! The No-Bake Peanut Butter Granola Bars are on constant rotation in my house. And I need to finally try your enchiladas!!
Awesome! The enchiladas are definitely a reader favorite 🙂

What a great list! I love that you included reader favorites as well at the end. I should do a list of the recipes I make most often. I’ve done lists of my top 10 at the end of each year, but that doesn’t necessarily mean I’ve made them more than once haha.
Isn’t it crazy how many recipes we post that we only make once?!

Thank you for putting this list together! I pinned it one of my boards as a good reference, for when I need to spice things up a bit. Happy Monday pretty lady! XOXO
Thanks for pinning my love 🙂
Ellie,if you go to the Kamoa web site and read, they have a group of ukuleles in your price range, the E3 series…new for 2012.I think the saprano is only about 200 MSRP. Probably 20% less in an online store or ebay.See what you like and they go to ebay…Mim is a seller that carries Kamoas and does what is called a “setup” on them for free. a setup checks the “action” (how high or low the strings are to the fretboard and checks for other things that make the uke the most playable. There are other dealers, look online and see what you can find.Good luck.

Love this post!! I should think about doing one for my site too 🙂 You’re so right though! With so many blogs and recipes out there, it’s hard to choose which ones to make! More people should put their favorite posts right up front on their site. Great idea!! Keep up the awesome work and keep the great recipes coming!
Thanks lady! Get ready for some greatness coming your way sooooon!

Yum! All the recipes look amazing. I know what you mean though. I totally LOVE experimenting, so I feel like there are many recipes I love that rarely get made again 🙁
Right?! It’s so sad!
