The Hummus & Pita Co. Turns Hummus Into a Dessert Dip
With a focus on creating healthy, inclusive and unique vegan creations, The Hummus & Pita Co. is no ordinary Mediterranean joint.
Known for the daring Chickpea Chiller AKA the Hummus Shake, a milkshake made using garbanzo beans, The Hummus & Pita Co.’s journey into the great vegan beyond resulted in the creation of the Chickpea Schmear. What makes this special menu item different is that it’s hummus made for dessert.
The Chickpea Schmear is available in three flavors: Cookie Dough, Cake Batter and Chocolate. Untouched, the Chickpea Schmear almost looks more like pudding than hummus. Recommended by co-founder and recipe developer Dave Pesso, their in-house cinnamon toasted pita chips are the perfect compliment to the creamy dip.
Each Chickpea Schmear is made with only a handful of healthy ingredients with only 59g per serving, and is low in calories, fat and sugar. With summer right around the corner, this sweet treat is a healthy and fun way to enjoy hummus.
Think it’d be a good compliment to pickle hummus?
