About Hummus with pita

Hummus with pita is a popular dish originating from Middle Eastern cuisine, enjoyed worldwide for its creamy texture and rich flavors. Hummus is made primarily from blended chickpeas, tahini (sesame seed paste), olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic, offering a wholesome spread that pairs perfectly with soft, warm pita bread. Chickpeas are an excellent source of plant-based protein, fiber, and essential minerals like iron and magnesium, making hummus a nutritious choice. Tahini adds healthy fats while olive oil provides heart-friendly monounsaturated fats. However, depending on preparation, hummus can be calorie-dense due to the use of oil and tahini. Pita bread supplies carbohydrates but may lack whole grains, depending on the variety. Overall, hummus with pita is a satisfying and nutrient-rich snack or appetizer, ideal for balanced diets when consumed in moderation.
