how do you use humas?



Recommended Posts

7_13_17.gifO.K. this may seem like a dumb question, but how do you use humas? I kept hearing about how good it is for you. I bought 2 different kinds of it and have no idea in what to use it in, or how to fix it into a dip or anything else. So would somebody please help me out? Thanks

I buy whole wheat tortillas, spread hummus and roll it up and eat it. Nice snack. As someone else said, you can use it for veggie dip, pita chip dip or by itself. In New York City there is a vegan restaurant that serves a meal that has hummus as a base, brown rice on top of it and a vegan style chicken on top of the brown rice and it is WONDERFUL!!! I didn't miss the meat at all at this restaurant.

as already said above, i use it as a dip with raw veggies...carrots, celery etc or i use it as a spead...in stead of using butter or margarine on my bread. I also use it for pitta pizza....

cut the pitta bread in half, spread the humas over the pita....

add red onion, grated cheese, sliced peppers, sweetcorn, mushrooms, tuna and top with a lil bit of cheese....umm its delcious!! and low calorie.

Add it to your salads, avocado, salmon, rocket leaves, spring onions etc and then hummas. LOVELY STUFF! Blend red peppers into a paste and add it to the hummas put on crackers or pita bread...hmmm yummy! I use my hummas on just about everything. I love the stuff.

Want to add more garlic to your diet? Blend garlic cloves till they are a paste and add to your hummas. This with grilled chicken is yummy yummy.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
