Tribe Mediterranean Style Hummus Review

Tribe Mediterranean Hummus

I got a few flavors of Tribe Hummus to try - I LOVE hummus, and I immediately set to work putting it on any and everything. First flavor I randomly reached for was the Tribe Mediterranean Style Hummus. It's described as having, "a light drizzle of olive oil and dusting of paprika on top of classic hummus."

NUTRITION FACTS

Classic hummus pretty much tastes the same no matter what the brand, and the paprika & garlic add a subtle flavor. But what really sets this Tribe hummus apart is how creamy and rich this hummus is. I expected for it to be okay, but when I had it on top of some Back to Nature Organic Saltine Crackers, but it turned out to be spectacular.

Each 2 tablespoon serving of Tribe Mediterranean Style Hummus provides 70 calories, 5 grams of total fat (8% of the daily value), no saturated fat, 120 mg sodium (5% of the DV), 1 gram of fiber, no sugars and 2 grams of protein.

The ingredients are, cooked chickpeas (chickpeas, water), tahini (ground sesame), canola oil, dried roasted garlic, salt, citric acid, extra virgin olive oil, spices, paprika, parsley.

I use hummus as a spread instead of butter, but not too much because it's still calorie heavy. As I mentioned before, I received samples courtesy of the company, but Tribe Mediterranean Style Hummus is available at my local grocery store at $3.99 for an 8 ounce container, and this flavor is really good, so if you haven't tried it already - what are you waiting for?!
