Hummus is the Arabic word for chickpea. One of the oldest foods on the planet, hummus dates back to ancient Egypt. what can we offer that is a new twist on an ancient food? Sprouted Hummus. Double the protein and 20 – 30 times the nutritional value. Take that Cleopatra.
Sprouting chickpeas? Really?! In the Gypsy Kitchen? Oh yeah, we’re spouting chickpeas, because it’s fun. Nothing I like more than growing things then eating them.

In my first year as an Innkeeper I began a tradition that became a trademark in my bed & breakfast rooms – bedside cookies. While guests were out enjoying the evening, I would slip into their room with a plate of warm oatmeal cookies, straight from the oven.
