Ingredients

For the Beet Hummus

  • 1 roasted red beet peeled and chopped

  • 1 can chickpeas drained

  • 2/3 cup tahini

  • 2-3 zest & juice lemons about 1/3 cup of lemon juice

  • 2 cloves garlic finely chopped

  • 1/3 cup olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon cumin or more to taste

  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

  • 1 handfull chopped Parsley

Topping Options 

  • 1 handful of chopped parsley, Sumac, thinly sliced radishes, pine nuts, feta cheese, some more lemon zest, big salt flakes, olive oil

Instructions

  • Combine the chickpeas, tahini, beet, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, and salt in the bowl of a food processor.

  • With the motor running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil and blend until smooth.

  • Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin or salt as needed. I like mine extra garlicky and lemony!

  • Serve in a large bowl or on a large plate creating a “bowl” in the center and sprinkle parsley, lemon zest, nuts, sumac, big salt flakes or anything else your heart desires. I love to pool great quality olive oil around it too!

Serve with Plantain chips, veggies, toasted baguette, chips or anything else you’d like to dip into this glorious hummus!
