The Most Delicious Brain Boosting Hummus with an Extra Nutritious Twist

You guys, I can barely wait to give you this recipe so you can taste this delicious hummus. As a medicinal foods enthusiast I am always on the lookout for recipes that are both nutritious and mouth-watering good.

Every single person on earth should be able to make a killer hummus at home. The home made stuff is so much better than the store bought version in every way (except convenience I suppose).

Your friends and family will rave about the creaminess and flavor of this dip.

This hummus uses walnuts, which are considered by many the top nut for brain boosting effects. The reason is mostly due to its high levels of DHA, but walnuts have several components that have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.

These compounds have been shown to reduce your risk of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, improve cognition and memory, and even decrease anxiety.

This study goes into depth on the brain boosting effects of walnuts.

The other secret ingredient in this hummus is butter beans, which are high in fiber and nutrients. In the spirit of plant diversity I always try to sneak variety and new flavors into my foods and the taste of the butter beans goes perfectly with the walnuts, chickpeas, and garlic.
