Hummus. One of the best foods on the planet.
Why?
Here are 10 key reasons:
-
Suitable for many people, regardless of popular eating practices (VG, VE, GF, DF)
-
Hummus has a very low glycemic index, making this dish a staple choice for anyone managing blood sugar #diabetes.
-
Great source of vegetarian protein, a macronutrient that can fall behind in a vegetarian/vegan diet.
-
Packed full of nutrients, keeping you fuelled and satisfied.
-
Tahini - a key ingredient, is very high in calcium, an essential mineral for bone support and general health.
-
A great source of fibre, supporting a healthy digestive system.
-
High in monounsaturated fat, including both the chickpeas and the olive oil. Monounsaturated fats are linked with heart health, weight loss and improved skin, hair and nails.
-
Chickpeas provide a good source of iron, a mineral that can be scarce in those with anaemia.
-
High levels of antioxidants, which reduce oxidative damage within the body and support a stronger immune system.
- TASTES AWESOME !
