Is hummus a healthy food?!


Question: Is hummus a healthy food!?
I had hummus on pita bread, and low-fat milk for dinner!. Just wondering if this was healthy or not!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
yes !.!.!.!. chick peas (garbanzo beans) are a very good source of protein, and also help lower cholesterol!. If there's any oil in the hummus, it would be olive oil, which is also very healthy!.!.!.!. You needed a veggie though, so next time have some cucumbers with itWww@FoodAQ@Com

You could use some fresh veggies with your meal!.

You can make a simple salad like this:

Fresh plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped
Sliced cucumbers
Season to taste with salt, dill, mint and garlic
Toss with a sweetened lemon juice and olive oil dressing

In place of the milk you could sprinkle feta cheese on top of the salad!. It's delish either way!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes actually!. Hummus is traditionally made with garbanzo beans (chickpeas), so its high fiber, low fat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Very healthy! Hummus is very healthy and is a good protein, while the olive oil and tahini (sesame paste) are good fats that boost mood!. I LOVE hummus!!Www@FoodAQ@Com
