Hummus?

Question

Ok so I'm not yet pregnant but am actively trying and I just read that hummus was an "eat with caution" food. My dr however didn't mention this as a food to avoid due to listeria. Has anyone else been told not to eat hummus while pregnant? 
Thank you in advance.

Answer

I'd make your own. Chickpeas/Garbanzo Beans (you can get them canned or dried, soak overnight if dried), tahini, olive oil, garlic, a little salt to make a traditional version. For a Greek version, trade tahini for Greek yogurt and add some basil. For a garden style, make out of original ingredients and add some sundried tomato and basil, parsley, and onion powder. You can also make other versions, and can find the recipes on pintrest or Google it. I don't know what a doctor's view on hummus is, so I'd ask.

Really listeria? That is interesting... why would a pregnant woman be more prone to though than a non pregnant woman...if the hummus has listeria the person is going to get sick no matter what right?

Just honestly curious.
