Hummus Crostini is a delightful blend of Mediterranean and Italian culinary traditions, combining smooth, creamy hummus with crusty, golden-brown slices of toasted bread. The hummus, typically made from chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic, is rich in fiber, plant-based protein, and heart-healthy fats. It’s spread atop crostini – thin slices of baguette or other bread toasted to perfection – offering a satisfying contrast in texture. This dish is vegetarian-friendly and provides a nourishing source of vitamins, minerals, and energy. While hummus supports cardiovascular health and offers anti-inflammatory benefits, the crostini may add extra calories, particularly if from white bread or topped with additional oils. Opting for whole-grain bread enhances the nutritional profile with added fiber and micronutrients. Perfect as a snack, appetizer, or light meal, Hummus Crostini is an accessible, wholesome option packed with flavor and nutritional value.
