As the world continually embraces healthier living options, hummus has become an in-demand choice for people looking to balance taste with nutrition. Silver Fork Gluten-Free brings to you our Wholesome Hummus, a perfect blend of flavors and nutrients, designed with your health in mind and the principles of the Whole Health Flexi-Plan.
The Nourishing Goodness of Hummus
Silver Fork Wholesome Hummus is made from chickpeas, a natural source of plant-based protein. It’s a great addition to vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free diets. Chickpeas are rich in fiber and can help control blood sugar levels, support gut health, and help manage weight by promoting feelings of fullness. The essential vitamins and minerals in chickpeas, such as B vitamins and iron, support healthy functioning of your body.
A Healthy Serving of Tahini
The use of tahini in our Wholesome Hummus not only elevates its creamy texture and rich taste, but also introduces an additional layer of health benefits. Tahini, made from ground sesame seeds, is loaded with healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals. It’s a great source of calcium, magnesium, and iron, which are vital for your body’s physiological functions.
Enriched with Olive Oil
We enhance our Wholesome Hummus with a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil. This healthy fat is known for its heart-health benefits. Rich in monounsaturated fats and antioxidants, olive oil can help lower bad cholesterol levels and reduce inflammation.
A Touch of Freshness with Lemon and Garlic
The zing of fresh lemon juice and the punch of garlic in our Wholesome Hummus don’t just add to the flavor profile. These ingredients are packed with health benefits too. Lemon juice is high in vitamin C, an antioxidant that boosts your immune system and skin health. Garlic, on the other hand, is known for its potential heart-health benefits and its antibacterial and antiviral properties.
Silver Fork Wholesome Hummus and the Whole Health Flexi-Plan
Our Wholesome Hummus aligns perfectly with the principles of the Whole Health Flexi-Plan. This diet is about flexibility and balance, prioritizing whole foods and minimizing processed ones.
