Hummus on bread is a delicious and nutritious dish that combines creamy chickpea-based hummus with your choice of wholesome bread. Hummus, originating from Middle Eastern cuisine, is traditionally made with blended chickpeas, tahini (sesame paste), olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic. Packed with plant-based protein, fiber, and healthy fats, hummus is a heart-healthy spread that promotes digestion and sustained energy. Pairing it with whole-grain bread further boosts its nutritional profile, adding more fiber and essential nutrients for long-lasting fullness. However, some store-bought hummus varieties can contain added oils or excess sodium, so homemade or carefully selected options are best. Though bread provides carbs for energy, refined or white bread may lack the nutritional benefits of whole grains. Ideal for a quick snack or light meal, hummus on bread offers a balance of flavor, texture, and health benefits rooted in centuries-old culinary tradition.
