A while back, Serena opened up on what she keeps in her refrigerators. These include – kale, cucumbers, mint, vegetables, etc. This would not be appetizing for a lot of people and it probably isn’t for Serena which is why she has a favorite dish which she always makes – hummus with a plate of veggies or tacos.

Not only is this absolutely delicious, but it also has numerous health benefits too. Hummus is extremely rich in plant-based protein and it also has ingredients that have been proven to fight inflammation. In addition to that, it controls blood sugar levels and helps maintain healthy body weight. Clearly, this a perfect dish for any athlete.
