What do you eat with Hummus?

TakinSexyBack

I just wanted to find out what other people eat with their hummus?!! I am doing the low carb thing and can't eat it with the pita chips I used to would have!!! Im looking for ideas of what to eat with it that are low carb!! Love snow peas and cucumbers. Need more variety tho!!! :-)

Red, Orange and yellow mini bell peppers. I buy the bags of mini peppers from Costco.

LOVE hummus with fresh veggies....peppers, mushrooms, cucumbers...even carrots...

How about sliced bell peppers, celery, or carrots?

I like it as a salad dressing. Dilute it with a little bragg's and fresh orange juice; it's delicious.

I usually like to dip baby carrots in hummus

Carrots and cucumbers are my favorite

Ritz crackers with a Kalamata olive.

Bell peppers, broccoli, cucumber (though I am not entirely sure if that is low carb?) and carrots (but, same thing as cucumber - I don't think they adhere to the low carb thing). Mmm, maybe cauliflower would be yummy?
HTH!

That sounds SOOO good!

I used to make cucumber sandwiches, instead of crackers.

Red, green, orange, yellow peppers. Celery, carrots, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes (you could also slice a hot house tomato and make a sandwich with hummus in the middle), make a lettuce wrap with hummus (I use hummus as spreads, all the time). I have also used it as a dip instead of ketchup or bbq sauce...you can make or buy plain hummus and flavor it with a bbq flavor and its pretty good.

Carrots and Celery are my favorite. If you are not staying away from Carbs altogether I like to use a thin layer on my sandwiches and wraps. Especially the roasted red pepper flavor.

Whole-grain naan bread. Amazing flavor with any flavor of hummus.

I also eat celery or carrots w/ the roasted red pepper hummus.

I just polished off half an orange bell pepper with some! Yummy!!!

Joseph's whole wheat mini pita bread, or put it in a wheat tortilla and grill it

But if you're not eating those carrots or peppers are good

Thanks for all of the great ideas!!!! I didn't dig peppers with it for some reason but I LOVE most everything else suggested! I am staying low carb (most days) but getting them with veggies is the goal! I LOVE Sabra roasted garlic!!! I wonder if there are any tortilla chip substitutes besides low carb tortillas you can bake that would be good?? I have a recipe for a pizza crust that is actually all cauliflower, cheese and some spices.......I may have to try that and see if the "crust" makes good chips!!!

The first time I tried it I ignored the carrot sticks my friends were pushing and opted for cheetos instead. :blushing: In my defense, I can't stand carrots and the cheetos kinda resembled them so I figured close enough!

I like red peppers and sugar snap peas. I'm sure there are other vegetables I'd like too but those are my favorite.

My nephew eats it with those those baked packaged veggie sticks that are supposed to keep you from wanting potato chips.

elishazf

pita bread and fresh peppers. I prefer greek pita

Cucumber slices or any other veggie. It's also good instead of mayo on a sandwich. It's great to add to crackers or use as a dip with chips too.

I like hummus with pita bread. If you're doing the low-carb diet, try some broccoli or cauliflower. Or some mushrooms.

astrylian

I eat hummus with pita bread, on toast, tortilla chips, baby carrots, celery, peppers, raw broccoli, any sort of veggie really. I also put it in wraps as a dressing.

With pita bread, is still my favorite. I like to eat it for breakfast and put it in the toaster, so it's hot and fluffy/doughty/crunchy in certain parts. So delicious with a tub of cold/creamy hummus.

Vegetables are always great with hummus. Triscuits are great, too, because they offer a good amount of protein and fiber.

vanillapot

I eat it with rice crackers. I don't like it that much with vegetables... and rice crackers have very few calories

You could make the cheese chips. You take grated cheese and bake it on a non-stick cookie sheet in the oven at 350. You make piles about the size of a Ritz cracker and bake it till it's just very slightly brown. Then let cool until crisp. I also like it with vegetables. Broccoli is very good with hummus.

Vegggie Sticks - Carrots, Bell Peppers, Cucumber, Celery :-)

Just last week I ate it with romaine lettuce. Usually it's tough enough on the ends of this lettuce to scoop into the hummus. Very tasty.

I eat it with hardboiled egg whites, carrots, mushrooms, on a sandwich or wrap..etc. It's delicous with eggs. Don't knock it until you try it!

senyosmom

veggies!!! bell peppers, sweet peppers, baby carrots, celery.... etc.

Also, use a spread for sandwhich's in place of mayo.

brevislux

I eat a salad with hummus every day. It's very filling and tasty.
