Today I want to share with you, not only this 10-minute recipe for the simplest yet most-delicious pea hummus. I also want to talk to you briefly about my new blog category for simple recipes!

Yes, you’ve hear right! While most of my recipes are indeed simple, as I love straight-forward cooking and easy recipes, I’ve nonetheless come to the conclusion that one of the reasons why I don’t share more with you, is that I make it too complicated for myself to post frequently. As you might have noticed, my recipe posts are usually pretty long(ish). And, I tend to take a number of pictures to accompany each dish that I present to you.

In this new blog category I want to change things up a bit. Basically, I aim to give you more recipes and less talk 😉 So, without further ado, here is the first recipe of my quick & simple category. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

Lots of love,

Anna
