Munchies: Edible Recipes With No Cooking Required

When someone says they brought homemade edibles to the potluck, baked goods and desserts are often the first thing that comes to mind. But weed edibles aren’t limited to sweets and they definitely don’t have to take a lot of prep work and time to make. There are dozens of quick edibles recipes with no cooking required and we’re about to show you a few of our favorites that are perfect for your next party or movie night.

How to make edibles for beginners

The foundation of any edible recipe is an infused fat. Some of the most common are cannabutter and cannaoil, but it is also possible to infuse sugar, honey, and even milk depending on the recipe. The best tip is to make these infusions in large batches since items like butter and oil last for such a long time and can be used over and over again in many different edible recipes. The  easiest cannabutter recipes   call for an Instant Pot or a  Magical Butter Machine , but your normal stovetop method works too.

Cannabis gazpacho

Hailing from the Andalusia region in the south of Spain, this cold soup is the perfect way to cool off on a hot summer day. This non-sweet edible recipe requires no cooking, but you will need cannabis infused olive oil and a blender or food processor.

Ingredients:

• 2 lbs of ripe vine tomatoes or roma tomatoes (cored)
• 1 cucumber
• 1 green bell pepper
• ½ an onion
• 2 cloves of garlic
• 1-2 slices of leftover white bread
• 4 tbsp cannaoil (infused olive oil)
• 2 tbsp sherry vinegar
• Cumin
• Salt and pepper
• Optional toppings: croutons, diced hard boiled eggs, chopped ham, bacon bits, fresh herbs, diced tomatoes, diced onions.

Steps:

1. Begin by chopping up all of the veggies and peeling the garlic. Be sure to core the tomatoes and peel and seed the cucumber. Add all the vegetables into the blender or food processor and pulse on low.
2. Remove the crusts of the white bread. Wet the bread with water and squeeze out the excess before adding it into the blender. Bread is the key to making the soup thick and allows the soup to have the iconic gazpacho texture.
3. Incorporate the cannaoil, vinegar, and a pinch each of cumin, salt, and pepper. Blend everything together.
4. Pour into an airtight container and cool in the refrigerator until cold.
5. Top with another splash of cannaoil and your favorite garnishes. Don’t forget to serve it with toasted bread or crackers.

Do you normally take a few tokes while you’re cooking? Stock up on rolling papers, herb grinders, and blunt wraps or pick out a new portable dab rig,  dry herb vaporizer , or water bong to get in the right mindset.
