Where can I buy single portions of hummus?

[Lollibert]

Trying to eat healthier discovered hummus (not sure if it’s spelt right) I got a big pot and omg I couldn’t stop I ate the entire pot with carrot sticks and bread sticks I’m the type of person who can’t buy multipacks or I’ll keep eating so I want to only buy singular portions of hummus not the big pots lol

All major supermarkets do their own version of this.

Waitrose do a pack of 3 mini (single serving) pots of light hummus.

Deli counter normally lets you buy as much or as little as you want.

Echoing the Waitrose suggestion, but the most important thing is that you need to work on your binge eating disorder. That is not normal or healthy behaviour - it needs to be addressed with a HCP

You can also freeze hummus in single portions, and defrost as needed.

Sainsburys https://www.sainsburys.co.uk/gol-ui/product/sainsburys-mini-houmous-snack-pots--be-good-to-yourself-180g

Tesco https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/312577404

Just put 1/2 or whatever amount you want to eat in a bowl and put the rest back into the fridge.

Most do. And houmous is high in calories, it’s only healthy in a very small quantity. I’d be looking at how you control your eating

I make my own, no oil added, and freeze it in small pots.

Waitrose also do a lunch pack of a single portion with carrot and celery sticks.

Making your own is really straightforward, cheaper and nicer imo. Do that and divide into portions if you need to.

OP I’m another person who makes their own and I don't add any extra oil. It’s delicious and you can adjust the flavour to your liking.

It’s less than half the calories of shop bought. Really nutritious and healthy food.

Make it. I make a batch every other day and portion it. I get 4 portions per tin. Nicer, cheaper, and healthier than store bought. It takes me about 7 minutes from opening the tin of chickpeas to putting hummus portions in the fridge.

Tescos do them.. squeeze in lemon juice.

So do Tesco

Just make it and freeze in portions.

Spoon some onto your plate and put the pot back in the fridge. Increase the salad portion - not just carrots and bread sticks, have a lot of lovely salad. Also some wholemeal bread or pitta bread. It's a waste of money to buy one tiny pot.

Those pots are a single portion aren't they? Teen DS certainly thinks so. I can usually make them last 2 sittings.

Co-op do a massive tub. I don't buy them. I don't trust myself or DS!

Another vote for making it. A tin of chickpeas makes more than a shop bought portion and you can flavour it with cumin, coriander, loads of lemon juice. I make it salt free for the baby then salt it for the rest of us. Top with bought or made zaatar or pine nuts. You can use butter and cannelini beans for a different texture too.

@QueenOfTheEntireFuckingUniverse it was the co op giant tub I ate I just couldn’t believe it was so delicious and I couldn’t stop myself never did I think hummus would taste so nice

Comments about wasting money aren’t massively helpful when someone is trying to control binge eating. For OP, it may be worth paying for the small pots.

Oh! Right. Wow!

@lemongrizzled yes I never buy multipacks of anything anymore and only keep what I need in my cupboards I got a small pot last night I was happy to get it and happy that I enjoyed a normal portion of hummus without overdoing it x
