About Baba ghanoush

Baba Ghanoush is a creamy Middle Eastern dip made from roasted eggplants, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic. This wholesome dish is a staple in Levantine cuisine and is often paired with pita bread or fresh vegetables. The star ingredient, eggplant, is rich in fiber, antioxidants, and low in calories, making it a heart-healthy and weight-friendly choice. Tahini, a sesame seed paste, contributes healthy fats and plant-based protein, while olive oil adds monounsaturated fats that support cardiovascular health. Lemon juice provides a vitamin C boost, and garlic offers potential immune-supporting properties. Baba Ghanoush is naturally low in carbs and free of animal products, making it suitable for vegan and gluten-free diets. While nutritious, moderation is key as it can be calorie-dense due to its fat content. Enjoy it as a satisfying, nutrient-packed addition to your meals or snacks!
