Good info, but you forgot the most important part:
The main reason why hummus is calorically dense is because tahini, which is basically creamed sesame oil, is a major ingredient in hummus, and it's what gives it the creamy consistency.
Sesame oil has been known to have health benefits, but it also has elevated levels of fat.
Bottom line: enjoy it, just don't go overboard.
Here's a quick recipe:
Wheat pita bread, sliced cucumbers, hummus (flavor of choice), turkey slices...make a pita sandwich.
Enjoy, anon
