About Hummus and pita
Hummus and pita is a classic dish originating from Middle Eastern cuisine, loved worldwide for its simplicity and rich flavors. Hummus is a creamy dip made primarily from blended chickpeas, tahini (sesame seed paste), olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic. It pairs perfectly with soft, warm pita bread, which is a staple in Mediterranean diets. Packed with plant-based protein and fiber, hummus supports digestion and keeps you feeling full. Chickpeas are an excellent source of vitamins and minerals like folate and iron. Heart-healthy fats from tahini and olive oil contribute to its nutritional benefits. However, portion control is key, as tahini and olive oil are calorie-dense. Pita can vary in nutritional value; whole wheat versions offer additional fiber and nutrients compared to refined ones. This dish is a wholesome, delicious option when enjoyed mindfully.
