Dish Out Hummus with Style!

Enjoy this delectable dish with pita or veggies — you’ll always be grateful for the experience!

Choose a medium flat plate and spoon out a whole container of Hummus. Holding the plate in one hand, spread the Hummus with a spoon, leaving a thicker rim around the edge. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with paprika and chopped parsley, and — for a nice touch — add cooked chickpeas and pine nuts in the centre.

Love Served by the Bowl!

Our soups are a meal on their own!

We only use filtered water, fresh vegetables, herbs, spices and a variety of legumes and grains that combine to bring richness in nutrients and taste to your body. We love them just as they are, or with whole-grain bread, Hummus and Pesto on the side.

To deepen the flavour, add Pesto to any soup: Harira can complement couscous or quinoa — spoon on our Kale and Oregano Pesto. For the Tuscan and Tomato, spoon on our Basil Pesto. To spice it up, try the Carrot and Ginger soup with a teaspoon of our Zest-oh Cilantro Pesto.

Bring Food to Life With Our Pestos

Our Pestos are an easy, delicious way to get the benefits of raw greens and sunflower seeds (high in Vitamin E) into your family’s diet.

Our Pestos add great flavour as a pizza base, on pasta, bruschetta, as a sandwich spread, on feta or goat cheese, in a bean salad, and on roasted potatoes and steamed veggies.

Brush your choice of Pesto onto grilled fish, chicken or tofu. Spice up scrambled eggs or omelettes by mixing in any of our Pestos. Any grain — rice, quinoa or couscous — gains flavour and texture with 1 tsp of Pesto stirred in before serving.

Spread Zest-oh on a whole-wheat or corn tortilla, melt in the cheese, and enjoy a great quesadilla. To maintain nutrition, Pestos are best added just before serving.
