Welcome to Simply Davlicious Recipes!

Here you’ll find not only the entire archive of recipes from Simply Davine, but new recipes from my kitchen and some old family favorites too. Whenever I create a new recipe that’s worthy of sharing or get my hands on an old family favorite that I have permission to go public with, you’ll find it here!

I’ll add or update photos as I get them or get better ones and look for those cook book pages too! When you see a Cook Book Page for the recipe, Click the credit after you read them! The link will take you to the download page! Davlicious Cook Book Pages are made for a 12X12 book and are offered for download in full resolution at 300 dpi. You can collect them and try out the recipes. If you like them, add them to your own for a very personal and pretty cookbook you can print and add to your kitchen collection. A collection of your favorite recipes is also a great gift!

Things to note about my recipes-

I was born in Dearborn, Michigan, so ALL of the recipes I make are American. When an ethnic tag is attached, it means the flavors of that ethnic influenced my spice choices. I don’t claim to write any authentic ethnic dishes. That being said, if it’s tagged “Noni’s Recipe” or “Pop’s Recipe” and also tagged “Italian,” it IS authentic San Marinese!

Recipes that are tagged “vegetarian” are prepared without meat. My vegetarian guidelines are choices my niece, who is a vegetarian, will eat. They are not strict vegan recipes.

Low Fat Hummus


Low Fat Hummus

1 can Garbanzo Beans (AKA - Ceci Beans or Chick Peas)
2 TBS Tahini
1 clove Garlic, chopped
lemon juice to taste

Drain garbanzo beans reserving liquid. Place garbanzo beans, tahini, and chopped garlic clove in a food processor. Process until finely chopped. Add lemon juice one teaspoon at a time and mix adjusting for taste. You may want to add a little more garlic. (Or a lot depending on your personal preference.) Once you have reached the taste balance you prefer, add reserved liquid a couple tablespoons at a time processing until the hummus is a smooth texture.

Serve with pita bread, chopped tomatoes and pickled vegetables. This packs up great for a picnic, workout snack or can be arranged for an eye appealing side dish or light meal.

Keep prepared hummus in the refrigerator for up to a week.

1/4 cup of Low Fat Hummus is only 75 calories!
