About Reduced fat houmous
Reduced Fat Houmous is a lighter version of the traditional Middle Eastern dip made primarily from chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, and garlic. This variation reduces the fat content by limiting the amount of tahini or oil, while still delivering the creamy texture and savory flavor houmous is known for. Originating from Mediterranean and Levantine cuisine, it's a versatile option enjoyed as a spread, dip, or accompaniment to dishes like pita bread, vegetables, or grilled meats. Chickpeas, the star ingredient, are rich in protein, fiber, and important nutrients like folate and iron, making this a heart-healthy food choice. The reduced fat content makes it lower in calories compared to standard houmous, although it may contain slightly more additives for texture or flavor. While beneficial for calorie-conscious eaters, it’s best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
