Bread with hummus is a simple yet nutritious pairing rooted in Middle Eastern cuisine. Hummus, traditionally made from blended chickpeas, tahini (sesame seed paste), olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic, is a creamy dip packed with plant-based protein, fiber, and healthy fats. Paired with bread, such as pita or whole-grain varieties, it creates a satisfying meal or snack that offers a balance of carbohydrates and protein. Chickpeas are rich in essential vitamins and minerals like folate, iron, and magnesium, while tahini provides calcium and antioxidants. Opting for whole-grain bread enhances the fiber content, supporting digestion and sustained energy. While this dish is generally healthy, moderation with hummus is advised due to its calorie density from olive oil and tahini. Easy to prepare and vegan-friendly, bread with hummus is a versatile choice that can be enjoyed on its own or elevated with fresh vegetables or spices.
