Houmous is packed with protein and as well as being great in baked potatoes and sandwiches or wraps is ideal for lunch boxes when you’re out and about. Pack breadsticks or pitta slices (gluten-free or otherwise) for a tasty energy boost on the go! Shop bought houmous can be surprisingly high in salt, so always check the label when you’re not making your own. This recipe works just as well with a hand-whisk or food-processor and should give you around 6-8 portions.
