Healthy Snack Ideas with Hummus

  Healthy Snack Ideas with Hummus is the perfect way to kick off the new year.  It’s an easy way to reach that goal of healthier snacking!Healthy Snacks Ideas with Hummus

Like many of you, I have set a goal to eat better this year.  Preparing healthy meals isn’t that difficult but healthy snack ideas are another matter.  I have found that with a little bit preparation and planning, snack time can be healthy too.  It’s when I don’t plan and I just open the cupboard or refrigerator to see what I can find that I run into trouble.

Healthy Snacks Ideas with Hummus

So for me, the new year starts with a trip to my local Albertsons/Safeway store where I stock up on some healthy snack foods.  One of my favorite healthy snack ideas is hummus.  I love hummus all by itself but I also like to dress it up a bit.  Adding a few delicious and colorful toppings to the hummus not only makes it look prettier but it tastes even better!  I love the traditional hummus as well as the red pepperof O Organics® hummus.  I like to pick up some of the of O Organics® guacamole too and dress it up a bit. Of course you will need something to dip into the hummus so grab some fresh veggies like O Organics®baby carrots or their Caramelized Onion Pita Crackers which I love!

Healthy Snacks Ideas with Hummus

The possibilities are only as limited as your imagination! I’ve come up with some fun combinations that I really love and everything I used came from my local Albertson/Safeway.  My favorite, and the easiest, is to top the hummus with some sliced almonds and drizzle honey over the top.  Yum!!  I love the sweet and savory combo.

Sometimes I just look and see what I have in my refrigerator that would make a great hummus topper.  Another favorite is to chop up a tomato, some fresh basil, pine nuts and a drizzle of balsamic glaze.

Another fun combination is pomegranate seeds, Feta or Gorgonzola and a sprinkle of parsley.

Another simple one is to add some chopped fresh peppers to the top of the Roasted Red Pepper Hummus.  A little extra color and crunch!

For the guacamole I just add some black beans, salsa and chips!

For dipping, I use a combination of fresh veggies including baby carrots, cucumbers and an assortment of sliced peppers.  Tortilla chips and bagel chips are favorites too.  Just grab a chip and dip in!  For even more healthy snack ideas you might want to try  Peanut Butter and Oatmeal Bars for a protein packed snack.   Garlic Parmesan Roasted Chickpeas look amazing too and Baked Crispy Zucchini Chips are a great way to eat your veggies.

Organics® products are available in my area exclusively at my local Safeway and Albertsons.  You can also find them at all Albertsons Companies family of stores, including ACME Markets, Jewel-Osco, Vons, Pavilions, Randalls, Shaw’s, Star Market, United Express, United and Carrs/Safeway.
