I have created the following Beetroot Hummus Sandwich for Hovis as a quick lunch option to have with their Wholemeal bread. Make the hummus ahead, stick it in the fridge and enjoy during the week!​

​This beetroot hummus is super delicious with plant-based proteins, fibre, fats and fresh vegetables. All this in only 10 minutes of prep. For a tasty twist, I added walnuts and mint to the hummus. Forget store-bought sandwiches, just take this one to work and enjoy!​

I not only love bread but it is also a staple part of my flexitarian diet. I enjoy a lot of plant-based foods such as seasonal vegetables, fruits, beans, pulses, nuts, seeds and whole grains. They taste deliciously fresh, and also help with a balanced diet.​

I tend to prefer wholemeal bread because it’s naturally rich in whole grains, is low in fat and tastes fantastic. It also is high in fibre and a source of vitamin B1. The extra soft crust of Hovis Wholemeal Bread is a real winner with my kids.​

The Hovis range has plenty to choose from in addition to plain wholemeal such as Lower Carb Wholemeal, Farmhouse Wholemeal, Granary and Seeds Sensations Wholemeal (another family favourite).​

I am delighted to be joining the #HovisRiseUp campaign and I would really love it if you could join me too!​
