Hello Monday!!! I’m glad you’re here! I never thought I would be so happy to see a Monday. The weekend tuckered me out. I was at a training all weekend. More to come on that soon! 😉

So…my little Monday friends, I’m a bit tired and a tiny bit relieved it’s FINALLY Monday so I can get some down time and by down time, I mean staying home all day working and studying in yoga pants. I could really get used to this working from home thing (and working for myself).

Before I always felt so stressed when Monday came around. I never felt ready for Monday. Before I spent the weekends catching up and frantically crossing everything off my to-do list so I would be ready for another manic week.

Now I’m like yeah, it’s Monday! Less traffic and I can go to the grocery store in peace. Hey, there’s an upside to everything!

Another major upside to being home more is I’m able to eat a lot healthier too. I can make a smoothie, freshly squeezed juice or recipe any time I want to like this Herby Edamame Hummus that I’ve been wanting to make forever.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve meant to make this recipe, but would always forget about it by the time the weekend rolled around and it always got lost amongst my thousands of to-do lists.

Oh, but the good news is I FINALLY made this creamy beast of a dip!

So I have a slight obsession when it comes to dipping. That action of dipping veggies into a dip preoccupies me and not to mention, it wards off the munchies big time! I’m telling ya, drop the afternoon treats and get your dipping fingers going. You’ll feel a MILLION xxx better. Pinky swear!

BUT. This Edamame Hummus can be used for so very much more than dipping. I’ve lathered it on homemade pizzas, sandwiches, salads and even baked it on chicken <- seriously the best!

If you don’t know how to swim, you’re gonna want to put on a life preserver before diving into this Herby Edamame Hummus! Made with just a handful of simple and fresh ingredients, this hummus is a serious protein filled snack.

Filled with creamy Greek yogurt and bouncing with fresh and tangy flavors of mint and cilantro (substitute parsley if you’re not a cilantro lover), this one dip you’ll want to devour all day, every day. And it’s green! Just in time for St. Patty’s Day!
