About Light humous
Light hummus is a creamy, flavorful dip rooted in Middle Eastern cuisine, traditionally made from blended chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and seasonings. This lighter version reduces fat content by cutting back on olive oil and tahini, or substituting them partially with water or yogurt, without sacrificing rich taste or texture. Packed with plant-based protein, fiber, and essential nutrients like folate and manganese, light hummus contributes to satiety and supports digestive health. Its lower calorie and fat profile make it a healthier choice for those mindful of their intake. However, some store-bought varieties may contain added preservatives or sodium, so checking labels is recommended. Versatile and nutrient-dense, light hummus serves as a wholesome dip for veggies, a spread for sandwiches, or a base for creative recipes, delivering both flavor and nutritional benefits.
