Lunch Recipes Made with Hummus

With these easy school and office lunch ideas, you’ll put hummus to use. It’s is a great way to add flavor to lunch recipes.

And while I do still love using Hummus as a healthy dip, I also enjoy using it as a spread or a salad dressing are two of my favorite ways to use hummus.

Hummus Turkey & Veggie Wraps 

Instead of the traditional salad dressing, try using Hummus as the spread on your wraps. It adds an extra kick of flavor, plus, it’s the perfect boost of nutrients that can really help teens stay full after lunch. More ideas for healthy lunch wraps here. 

Hummus Stuffed Avocados 

This lunch has loads of healthy fats and proteins to keep you satisfied all afternoon long. This recipe pairs great with plantain or banana chips and fresh fruits.

Hummus Veggie Club Sandwich

To build this club sandwich all you need is some hummus, pesto, cheese and sliced tomatoes. This is one colorful and delicious sandwich!

Mediterannean Bistro box

Build your own bistro box with hummus and tasty Mediterannean toppings like olives, feta cheese, cucumber slices and your favorite cracker or pita bread. I like taking pita bread and cutting it into small cracker-size pieces to complete this tasty bento box!

If you prefer, you can make the same tasty Hummus Bistro Box with leftover chicken and slices of cheese! You really can’t go wrong either way.

BLT Hummus Cups 

Use thin endive leaves to hold your bacon, tomatoes and hummus. If you don’t have endive handing the inner leaves of romaine hearts will do just fine.

This is a great way to use up leftover bacon (if there ever is such a thing) and enjoy this delicious hummus pairing at the same time.

What goes with Hummus?

Hummus is made from pureed chickpeas. This is the dip that totally has America under a spell. How can a product made with such simple and natural ingredients have such a hold on us?

Once you examine all of the flavors Hummus has to offer, the health benefits, and the many ways in which you can use hummus, it really is no wonder why it’s so popular. The savory dip is just irresistible!

Next time you make a sandwich or wrap, use hummus instead of mayonnaise. Or you can spread some hummus on your toast or bagel instead of butter or cream cheese in the morning.

Another great aspect of hummus is that it’s so filling, you don’t even need bread!

You can also use hummus as a base to make your own salad dressing or even toss it with hot cooked pasta. The possibilities are truly endless. Plus, because there are so many ways to make Hummus, I’m certain you’ll never get bored!
