Hummus is good for you. It has protien, potasium, and adds dietary fiber. The chickpeas in hummus are also a good source of soluable fiber, which can lower your LDL undesirable cholesterol.  It’s a great staple in our GFCF Diet!

1. Use as a replacement for butter on your gfcf toast. When you add garlic and flavorings, this is really yummy.
2. Miss grilled cheese? Try a grilled hummus! Add some gfcf olives, roasted red peppers, and artichoke hearts and suddenly you are a gourmet chef. Who knew?
3. Use as a sandwich spread instead of Mayonnaise that isn’t acceptable on the gfcf diet.
4. Use it to make great garlic bread, instead of butter.
5. Use it as a flavoring instead of sour cream on top of baked potatoes or to garnish soups.
6. Use it as a coating for chicken breasts or fish fillets before rolling in rice bread crumbs.
7. Make hummus and cucumber sandwiches for a nice brunch. They are different and yummy.
8. Thin it and use for a sald dressing.
