Blast from the Past Recipes Inspired by Minions ©

If you know my son, Jack, then you know that he is OBSESSED with all things minions. We even found a pair of his old footie pajamas that were a big Minion and we simply HAD to cut the feet off so he could wear them another year. So when Minions came out this past summer, we were the first in line to see it! As a mom, I was stoked because Illumination Entertainment is the same film production company that created the Despicable Me franchise, so I KNEW this flick would be just as adorable and it was!

So when the Blu-Ray/DVD of Minions was set to hit the stores, the boys and I knew we had to snatch it up! If you don’t know anything about the film, it basically follows the minions throughout history and discusses where they came from and how they get into mischief over the years.

As an homage to that, I thought for our family movie night with our new DVD, I would create two time-inspired recipes for easy munching while keeping up with our goggle-eyed friends.

    I LOVE the idea of going prehistoric with the minions. That cauliflower hummus sounds delicious, and I bet my family would never guess there’s an “extra” veggie hiding in it. Perfect for celebrating the release of the Minions movie! #client
