OUR STORY
A recipe passed down, and a little reimagined.
From Tita's kitchen to the Michigan farmers market — here's how Hey, Habibi came to be.

"Hey Habibi Hummus is inspired by my grandmother, Tita Helene Habib. It has always been my staple to bring to any party."
Hey, Habibi Hummus is inspired by my Tita (grandmother), Helene Habib, and our passed-down Lebanese family hummus recipe.
The loud whir of chickpeas stirring in the food processor, followed by family gathering around Tita’s counter to taste her hummus are core memories from my childhood.
​
Tita and I share in the simple joy of bringing people together over food, and hummus has always been my staple food to bring to any party.
​
When I’m not making hummus, I am a practicing physician’s assistant with a passion for health, wellness, and fitness. I understand the importance of a balanced, nutrient-rich diet and including enough protein to meet your health goals
​
Combining my two passions, I was able to perfect a hummus recipe with an extra punch of added protein that maintains the authentic Lebanese flavors.
​
Enter, Hey, Habibi - The Protein Hummus.
​​
Hey, Habibi Hummus is made with all natural ingredients. With a light flavor profile rooted in lemon and garlic. I hope you enjoy and share with friends.
And, of course, to honor my late Gidge (grandfather), John Habib, I had to make a spicy version, too!
