About Hummus with cucumber slices

Hummus with cucumber slices is a nutritious and refreshing combination rooted in Middle Eastern cuisine. Hummus, made primarily from blended chickpeas, tahini (sesame seed paste), olive oil, garlic, and lemon juice, boasts a creamy texture and a rich, earthy flavor. Paired with crisp cucumber slices, this dish offers a balance of protein, healthy fats, and hydrating crunch. Chickpeas provide fiber and plant-based protein, supporting digestion and sustained energy, while tahini and olive oil contribute heart-healthy fats. Cucumber, high in water content and low in calories, offers essential vitamins and antioxidants, promoting hydration and overall wellness. This snack is naturally gluten-free, vegan, and packed with wholesome ingredients, making it a great choice for midday cravings or party platters. However, it’s worth noting that some store-bought hummus may contain added salt or oils, so homemade or carefully chosen options can maximize health benefits.
