Finding a snack that keeps you full can be difficult, that’s why I love snacking on hummus.
Oh, and the fact that there are so many varieties helps because then you can eat a lot of it without getting sick of it, which is what happens to me frequently when I eat something on a regular basis!
Hummus is a great snack because it is both filling and healthy (and it tastes good, which is also important!).
Filled with protein and fiber, hummus keeps you fuller longer without you feeling like you need to eat again 10 minutes after your last snack!
I have actually turned hummus into a meal on more than one occasion. Just cut up some fresh veggies, add a handful of crackers, and you have a nice little meal ready to go in no time.
Since hummus is so easy to make, you can whip it up fresh whenever you want.
If you still want to save some time, make a big batch and store it in the refrigerator for a few days. That way you can scoop out a serving whenever hunger hits!
Cilantro lime jalapeno hummus is my new favorite hummus to snack on. This creamy hummus is refreshing with the cilantro and lime flavors.
A small jalapeno adds some heat to the mix and makes the hummus great for dipping baked tortilla chips or your favorite veggies in it for a quick snack.

This is totally awesome, Jessica! I am such a horrible snacker and find that I’m satisfied after my snacks for all of fifteen minutes before I’m clawing at the pantry for something else. And you know how I feel about dip… 🙂 this sounds perfect for me! I’m a huge spicy fan and I live for cilantro — I could put it on anything! Waaaaaant this!
katie says
Oh wow this sound awesome!
Nora @ Buttercream Fanatic says
Totally with you: hummus is basically the perfect food/meal/snack. I love how you made it with white beans – It seems like they would go better with the taste of the cilantro and lime than chickpeas would. What a great idea!
Laura (tutti dolci) says
I love hummus, this is such great variation!
Liz says
Sounds delicious Jessica! I eat hummus almost daily. I’m not a heat fan so I would leave out the jalapeno….I’m a wimp! 🙂
Miss Messy says
Eek looks delicious!
Tracey says
I so rarely eat hummus but I absolutely love the sound of this one – not to mention the pretty green color 🙂
Jess says
Love these flavors – what a great combination. I bet these would be great for burrito bowls too – spooned over rice and black beans. Looks like a good substitute for guacomole!
Jen @ Savory Simple says

Katherine Mitchell says
I came across this recipe on Pinterest while looking for a vegetarien side dish to bring to a cook out. I made a double batch, and it was the first thing that dissapeared. I also made it again yesterday afternoon to have as a healthy snack. It’s really delicious! I added a few shakes of cumin to mine for a little extra something. I am however, only giving it 4 stars, because (now this is a little embarassing) my husband and I both had…ahem…stomach issues after eating it. I’m assuming due to the high fiber content of the beans! I think I will try chickpeas next time.Thanks for the tasty recipe.
