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

    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.

    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.

    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. :smile:

    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!!! :-)

    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!

    Falafel... veggie patch brand isn't too bad on carbs & 4 peices is only 130 calories. If you double it, it's a meal!

    I'm doing low carb too. I dip it with all the veggies listed and even cheese sometimes. For a cracker, I eat Melba toast usually with it if I need a carb fix. I have used with the low carb tortillas as a spread with spinach and tomatoes for a lunch too. Sarba Tuscan garden is the best.

    I could never bring tuna salad in my school lunch because I don't have a fridge. I tried mixing my tuna with hummus and accidentally discovered yummm.

    So my tuna lunch is 2 cans of tuna, drained, mixed with 2-3 tbsp of plain or garlic or sundried hummus, plus any salsa/hot sauce/seasoning spices I like. I use chipotle tabasco a lot and it's good.

    A nice protein filled bowl of yummy. I eat it with a spoon.

    a spoon. Oh wait you asked what to eat with the hummus not how to eat the hummus. :) I can only buy it in small quantities as I will eat the whole container in a coupe of servings, even if I portion out the serving size. I just keep going back for more servings.
