Hello. I want to eat whole grains this night. I like Hummus because it is nutritious. IS it okay to eat 1 serving of Hummus while on stabilization phase?

I believe it's okay to eat hummus on phase 3/maintenance (that 3 week period), I think hummus is just chick peas and olive oil. However, whole grains are not available until after you finish that 3 weeks of maintenance. So you can't dip breads into the hummus dip until phase 4 (or when you are able to eat starch again).
I've had similar thoughts on what else you could dip with hummus, since hummus was an appropriate food in phase 3. There's a Mediterranean Restaurant near me and if they serve hummus with Lamb, then I think that's going to be my go to lunch when me and friends go out to places.

Just be aware that hummus is made with chick peas and they contain starches so you may see a gain during maintenance. You should wait until phase 4 for that.

Cauliflower chips
Cut cauliflower florets into pieces and you can roast these for using instead of chips.
Hummus - you can make it with very little or almost no oil.
