How This Yogi Gets Her Snack Fix

What fuels a vegetarian yogi, so she can keep on doing those back bends?

New to Flex, yogi Delia Leung has plenty of favourite go-to dishes. But as a vegetarian, this Hummus recipe* really works as a no-fuss snack that ticks all the right boxes.

“It’s great as a snack in between classes, or as an appetizer on a dining table together with kale chips, celery, carrot sticks, olives, guacamole, cucumber or black bean chips,” says Delia, also a yoga Nike Trainer (Ambassador).

Said to have originated from the Middle East or Greece (the debate goes on, although it’s likely it was Egypt as far back as the 13th Century) hummus is a great source for plant-based protein for immune system, optimal growth and recovery. Also rich in iron, and vitamin B, “it’s my favourite as a vegetarian”.
