Tacos: a simple yet profound word that evokes images of vibrant gatherings and flavor-packed bites. Originating from Mexico, tacos have traversed borders and culinary traditions to become a global favorite. Their beauty lies in their versatility—there's a taco for every taste, occasion, and dietary preference. And in the spirit of innovation and health, I present to you a delightful twist on the classic: Spinach Hummus Avocado Tacos.
I love making these when I'm in a hurry and am feeling something fresh, tasty, and simple to make!
Nutrition Info
Crafting tacos is an art form that champions simplicity and creativity. This particular recipe is a testament to that, combining ease with nutritional powerhouse ingredients. Hummus, the creamy spread made from blended chickpeas, not only adds a rich, savory base to these tacos but also serves as an excellent source of plant-based protein and fiber. Spinach, a leafy green adored for its nutrient density, brings vitamins, minerals, and a pop of color. When paired with lemon—a citrus that enhances iron absorption from spinach—you're not just biting into a taco. You're nourishing your body with every delicious mouthful.
Textures & Flavors of these Hummus Tacos
The textures in these tacos are nothing short of a symphony. Creamy avocado slices meld with the hummus to create a velvety smoothness that contrasts beautifully with the crisp freshness of spinach. To elevate the experience further, the tortilla is sprinkled with everything seasoning and a touch of flaky sea salt. This introduces an explosion of flavor that complements the zesty lemon. It's a culinary harmony that promises satisfaction in every bite. It proves that quick lunches don't have to compromise on freshness or health.
I love to make my own hummus, which can be found here, as the base to this quick lunch.
