Hummus with carrots is a nutritious and versatile snack rooted in Middle Eastern cuisine. Hummus, made primarily from chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic, is a great plant-based source of protein and fiber. It’s rich in healthy fats and essential nutrients like iron, magnesium, and vitamin B6. Paired with fresh carrots, this combination offers a satisfying crunch and a dose of vitamins A and C, supporting eye health and immune function. The natural sweetness of carrots balances the creamy texture of hummus, making it a wholesome and flavorful option. While hummus is generally healthy, it can be calorie-dense, so portion control is recommended for those watching their intake. Free from artificial additives, this pairing is ideal for those seeking a nourishing, whole-food snack that fits vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free diets.
