Houmous

Houmous is a chickpea spread that provides fat, carbohydrate, protein and fibre. The figures here describe houmous as a spread rather than chickpeas on their own. Per 100g, it contains 27g of fat, 11g of carbohydrate, 6.8g of protein and 4.9g of fibre. Fat is the main source of energy in this food.

Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues, while fibre helps maintain normal bowel function. The fat content is worth noting for people monitoring their energy intake, as fat is a concentrated source of energy. Houmous also contains salt, which is relevant for people watching their salt intake. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
