Jens Current Favourite Summer Snack



You can't go wrong with a seeded cracker and dip combo - it's the perfect summer snack that won't spike blood sugar levels like crisps or fruit would.


My current favourites are any sunflower/rapeseed oil free dips and Natoora and Riverford do the best.




Hummus can easily be whipped up in no time at all -  here are 3 recipes for you:


Turmeric Hummus

1 tin Chickpeas 

2 Garlic (clove)

2 tbsp Tahini

45 ml Apple Cider Vinegar

2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil

1 tsp Turmeric

Pinch Sea Salt


Method: Add all ingredients together in a food processor. Blend until a creamy consistency forms. Enjoy!


Basil Pesto Hummus

1 tin Chickpeas (cooked)

Handful Basil Leaves (roughly chopped)

2 tbsp Tahini

1 Lemon (juiced)

50ml water

Pinch Sea Salt


Method: Add all ingredients together in a food processor or high-speed blender. Blend until a creamy consistency forms, scraping the sides down as needed. Enjoy!


Spring Pea & Feta Dip

145 grams Fresh Peas (or frozen, thawed)

Handful Fresh Dill

100 grams Plain Greek Yoghurt

2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil

75 grams Feta Cheese (crumbled)

2 tbsp Lemon Juice

Sea Salt & Black Pepper (to taste)


Method: In a food processor, combine the peas, dill, yoghurt, oil, feta cheese, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Blend until creamy.
