About Baba gh

Baba Ghanoush is a creamy Middle Eastern dip made from roasted or grilled eggplant, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic. Originating from Levantine cuisine, it is a staple in Mediterranean diets and is enjoyed globally for its smoky flavor and rich texture. Packed with nutrients, eggplant is a low-calorie vegetable rich in fiber, antioxidants, and vitamins. Heart-healthy fats from olive oil and tahini contribute to its nutritional profile, providing essential omega-3 fatty acids. Lemon juice adds a dose of vitamin C, while garlic offers immune-supporting benefits. Baba Ghanoush is naturally vegan and gluten-free, making it accessible to a variety of diets. However, due to its olive oil and tahini content, it can be calorie-dense, so moderation is key. Commonly paired with pita bread or fresh veggies, this dip offers a delicious and nutritious way to enhance your meals.
