Egg whites are one of the best protein sources for building lean muscle mass. I try to always have hard-boiled eggs on hand for this quick and delicious hummus stuffed egg whites snack.
Today I'm sharing one of my favorite easy high protein snack recipes. All you do is to take a hard-boiled egg, slice in half, remove the yolk (I usually share the yolk with my dog...he's definitely spoiled) and fill with hummus. Top with a little freshly ground pepper.
I love using different varieties of flavored hummus for making these protein-packed stuffed egg whites.
Hummus is easy to make, if you prefer homemade. I have a great recipe for Roasted Red Pepper Hummus from scratch. Definitely give it a go if you've never made your own. It's super easy and hummus makes a great dip for veggies and crackers. It's also a good source of fiber.
For convenience, you can just buy Sabra's delicious Roasted Red Pepper Hummus...

What a brilliant idea. My daughters just decided to take up bento-making as a summer hobby. I bet stuffed egg whites would make a pretty bento addition. Love it!!
