The Dish
Hummus, surprisingly, is a really tasty component to have at breakfast. Chickpeas, the main ingredient in hummus, have a great buttery and nutty flavor, with an equally great creamy and smooth texture. They also happen to be a great source of fiber and lean protein, two nutritional components everyone likes to have in their breakfast meal mix. The hummus easily comes together in seconds with a simple blend in the food processor. Topping our homemade hummus are a nice mix of veggies—kale, cucumbers, and tomatoes—along with a fried egg, feta cheese, and plain Greek yogurt. A side of whole wheat toast comes in handy for scooping up all these tasty ingredients together in one bite.
