Nutrition and Healthy Eating
In honor of National Hummus Day, let’s make a hummus dip for our healthy snack hack. The main ingredient in hummus is chickpeas, which pack a serious punch of plant-based protein that your children are sure to enjoy. Chickpeas are also filled with fiber, which will help fill your children up. Many times hummus also includes tahini as an ingredient- which can be expensive or something you do not have on hand at home. Use our recipe below that swaps out tahini to whip up a healthy and easy hummus your children are sure to love dipping their veggies and whole grain crackers into!
Hummus Recipe:
Ingredients
• 1 (15 oz.) can garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained and rinsed
• 2 to 4 tbsp. water
• 2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tbsp. lemon juice
• 1 garlic clove minced
• 3/4 tsp. ground cumin
• 1/4 to 1/2 tsp. salt
Instructions
• Add the garbanzo beans, 2 tablespoons of water, the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt to a food processor or blender
