Hummus 3 Ways

BY

Aug 19, 2024

Hummus is such a nutrition powerhouse, with legumes, garlic and healthy fats like extra virgin olive oil and tahini. Though maybe not traditional, it can also be varied in so many different ways to increase the variety of plant foods for our gut and skin health. Here I have added steamed beetroot to one and some spinach and coriander to another - each providing different benefits and delicious flavours!
