A post-workout snack. Do you know it?

After a workout, your body needs real nourishment, combining clean energy, recovery-boosting protein, and a touch of indulgence. Sweet cocoa and hazelnut hummus is the perfect snack for this moment: it's healthy, tasty, and gives your body what it needs without weighing it down.

To prepare it, you need cooked chickpeas , which are an excellent source of plant-based proteins and complex carbohydrates: they help rebuild muscle fibers and recharge the energy consumed during physical activity. To these, add bitter cocoa , rich in antioxidants and magnesium, which helps relax muscles and counteract the oxidative stress produced by exertion.

Also add two tablespoons of 100% hazelnut spread , which provides healthy fats and vitamin E, excellent for cellular recovery. For a natural sweetener, you can use a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup , which quickly replenish glycogen stores. Finish with a pinch of salt—helpful for replenishing minerals lost through sweat—and a little vanilla extract for an even more fragrant flavor. For a smooth consistency, gradually add a little water or plant-based drink while blending.

The result is a soft and delicious cream, which you can enjoy spread on whole-wheat bread, accompanied by fresh fruit, or simply by the spoonful. It keeps in the refrigerator for 3-4 days and is an excellent alternative to traditional processed protein snacks.

In short: this sweet hummus is a complete, natural, and truly satisfying snack. Perfect for those who want to recharge their batteries and nourish their muscles in a healthy way, without sacrificing pleasure.
