This Hummus Recipe is filled with goodness. If you aren’t a beet person don’t worry! It really takes on the flavor of the hummus and with all the toppings it’s hard to go wrong.

Roasting the beets takes a minute so definitely plan ahead. And don’t forget them in there and nearly start the house on fire… wasn’t me. Wash and drizzle with olive oil and salt. Wrap in tin foil and bake at 400° for 1 hour. The skin should peel off when it’s done.

In a food processor or blender, mix garbanzo beans, tahini, beet, garlic, lemon juice and spices. As it’s blending pour in olive oil. If the consistency is too thick, a trick I’ve learned is to toss in an ice cube to fluff it up. To serve sprinkle some flaky sea salt, pistachios, pomegranate seeds and parsley. I’m a pita person myself but go wild with your preferred vehicle of dippers.

Happy Hummusing!
