#healthyjunior - Hummus is a traditional Mediterranean dip. It is prepared with boiled white chickpea and can also be relished as a spread on bread toast and parathas. Healthy and nutritious, they can be served with veggie crudites for a light meal any time of the day. So let me share my version of a Mixed Beans Hummus that is super yummy. Kids can have them with some veggie sticks like cucumber, beetroot, carrot, etc for a healthy snack. It is much better than the usual store bought chips and sauce.
