Just tried pouring some ginger ale in my lemonade (homemade). 10/10, much better than I wouldn't thought

Hummus and pesto. Just dump some pesto in your hummus and thank me later. You can buy both, obviously, but you can also easily make both from scratch so it can be super cheap once you have the core ingredients. It’s basically no harder than making a smoothie.

Bonus: basil grows whether you want it to or not, at least in most climates. If you have a spice garden, you kind of have to keep basil from dominating. But it also makes an excellent, cheap gift. When I was younger, I had a basil plant that lived for a few years and got huge and I just brought clippings instead of wine (or whatever) to parties. I saved tons of money and no one has ever been like, “Get the fuck out of here with that fresh basil.”
