About Mashed chickpeas

Mashed chickpeas, often recognized as the base for dishes like hummus, are a versatile and nutritious food originating from Middle Eastern cuisine. Made primarily from chickpeas, also known as garbanzo beans, this dish often includes ingredients like olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, tahini, and spices for added flavor. Chickpeas are rich in plant-based protein, dietary fiber, and essential vitamins and minerals such as folate, iron, and magnesium, making them an excellent choice for heart health, digestion, and sustained energy. Their low glycemic index also supports blood sugar control. When prepared with healthy fats like olive oil and moderate salt, mashed chickpeas are highly nutritious, but excessive use of oils or additives can increase calorie content. Naturally gluten-free and vegan, they’re a popular choice in both health-conscious diets and global cuisines, celebrated for their creamy texture and nutty flavor.
