We’re “Pretty Happy” About These Recipe!

Salmon and Hummus

What if I told you that the Food Pervert and I went to a star-studded Hollywood event the other night…

GiGi Dubois Tara Redfield ABC FAMILY

Where we chatted with the swoon-worthy Kate Hudson… Who was wearing a salmon-colored, glute-highlighting dress (oh you want to know the brand? Yeah, F that… You came to the WRONG website if you want to know about fashion…), accented with emerald green drop earrings and bright yellow pumps. <—  Just had to emphasize this fashion statement… 

Kate Hudson Pink Dress

Sure, this sounds like a mishmash of colors I, the walking fashion DON’T, might walk out of the house wearing, but I promise you, she looked hot Unlike myself…

GiGi is a walking fashion disaster

When we were chatting, she boasted how she is pretty happy about her new book: Pretty Happy, which focuses on “the Four Pillars of Health” including eating well, loving yourself, exercise and being mindful.

Well, I would be half-lying to you if I told you that because this run-in never actually happened.

The Perv and I couldn’t make said party… We had a prior engagement, which included devouring a 10-course meal made by a collaborative effort between Wolfgang Puck and Gordon Ramsey

If said encounter with Kate DID actually happen though… It would have been a pretty awesome segway into the recipe the Perv and I made for the latest Book To Plate episode… Because it was inspired by Kate Hudson’s new book that Pervy and I are PRETTY HAPPY with…

Rosemary Lemon Salmon & Hummus

Salmon and Hummus

  • 1 Lbs Salmon Steak
  • 1 Tbs Olive Oil
  • 6 Lemon Slices
  • 4 Sprigs of Rosemary
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

Things are about to get fishy…

  • Line a baking pan with tin foil and then lay sliced lemons down on tin foil.
  • Place springs of rosemary on top of the lemons.
  • Place salmon steak on top of the lemons and rosemary and pour olive oil over the salmon, coating fillet evenly.
  • Salt and pepper to taste and then bake in the oven at 405 degrees for 20 minutes.

While the salmon cooks… Gather these ingredients for the hummus… 

  • 1 Can Chickpeas, rinsed
  • 1/4 Cup Lemon Juice (from whole lemons)
  • 2 Tbs Olive Oil
  • 1/4 Cup Tahini Sauce
  • 1/2 – 1 Tbs Garlic
  • 2 Tsp Paprika
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

Hmmm… Hummus! 

  • This recipe is as easy as throwing all these ingredients into a food processor and blending until smooth! If you don’t have a food processor… A blender works just fine as well. If you don’t have either… Well, then you’re in for an awesome arm workout!

So Tell Me…

  • Ladies… How did you “lose a guy in ten days“? 
  • What food do you think to be “a little bit of heaven“?
  • What is “something borrowed” that you have failed to ever return?
  • Any plans for “Mother’s Day”? (Ahem, will you see the movie?)
  • Anyone pick up a copy of Kate Hudson’s book?
  • If you could have two celebrity chefs cook you up a 10-course meal, who would they be and what would you want them to cook?
