Remarkable Roasted Beet Hummus
Ingredients
- 4 organic golden beets
- 1 (15 oz) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 3 Tbsp tahini
- 1 clove organic garlic
- 2 Tsp cumin
- Juice from 1 organic lemon
- 1 Tsp sea salt, to taste
- ¼ Tsp ground pepper, to taste
- 1 Tbsp olive oil, to garnish
- Dash of paprika, to garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Remove the stem and root from the beets; scrub and wash them thoroughly until clean.
- Wrap beets in foil, place them on a baking sheet and place in oven on the center rack. Roast for 40 minutes (longer for larger beets). When fully roasted, the beets should be tender to the touch. Remove from foil and set aside.
- Once beets have cooled to room temperature, dice half of one beet and set aside. Combine the rest of the ingredients in a food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
- Taste and adjust seasonings, as desired. If needed, add a bit of water to thin.
- Transfer hummus to a serving bowl and garnish with a drizzle of olive oil, a sprinkle of paprika and remaining diced beets.
- Enjoy immediately with your choice of cracker or flatbread.
- Note: Hummus will keep in the fridge for about a week.
