Mmmmm I love humus. I dip raw vegetables in it, use it for a sandwich spread, spread it on toasted whole grain sourdough bread and dip pita chips in it when I'm being bad.

Toast pitas and use the humus as dip--yummy!

My favorite thing to do with it is use it as a spread for wraps. Use a tortilla shell, spread it with humus, and your favorite raw veggies and you've got a delicious and nutritius lunch.

I love toasted pimento cheese sandwiches but don't have to indulge in those now since I found roasted red pepper hummus. To me it is as good as my pimento cheese. I use hummus mostly for a sandwich spread and on pita bread.

Oh, my favorite - take a whole wheat pita and cut it into 8 pieces. Serve with hummus, kalamata olives, and low fat feta cheese. YUM!

Also serve on whole wheat bread with cucumbers, sprouts and tomatoes.

i tired to buy pitas! i can't find them anywhere! they only had frozen ones at Basic Foods and that is the last resort i had:-( where do you get pitas?

I can get them in my grocery store (Safeway). They are on the bottom shelf, and hard to see sometimes, but they are there.

Here in my town in NC pitas are in the bakery section of our grocery stores.

Kali... LOL... it is a spread made with chickpeas, spices... it is really good.

 

[kmkali24]

I love chickpeas! What section of the store is it in? I'll have to try it.

It is usually in the deli/gourmet section of your grocery store. It comes in a multitude of flavors. It is really wonderful. I love it.

 

[lov2bfit]

I make my own. It's really easy and I use it to dip raw veggies in or I spread it on whole wheat toast and english muffins.

Yum....hummus is better on a whole wheat bagel than cream cheese....yummy!!

Oooh...sounds yummy! Guess what's on my grocery list this week!

My fave is hummus on flatbread or quartered pitas with sliced cucumber finely chopped tomatoes and fresh chopped parsley:9 Enjoy!

Hey Jess-where did you find whole wheat pizza crust? Even I could make something with that! I hate cooking but would kill for whole wheat crust!

Terri

P.S. I wouldn't kill you of course

 

[jdoll]

well,of course not! i found the ww pizza crust in the frozen section of the health food store. i was so happy to find it! so later in the week i am making pizza. i also got some organic tomato paste. i think my first attempt will be spinach and mushroom with black olives. i'll let ya know how it turns out.

thanks for the humus ideas ladies
