There are no chickpeas or legumes of any kind in this vibrant Beet Hummus which is surprising because the texture and flavor would make you think otherwise.
Ingredients
4 beet(s)
Beets, raw
(peels on, scrubbed to remove any dirt)
2 tbsp
Extra virgin olive oil
1 pinch
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup
Tahini
1/4 cup
Lemon juice
2 clove(s)
Garlic
(coarsely chopped)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Rub the whole beets with olive oil and salt. Put them on a baking pan and roast for approximately 1 hour, until the beets are easily pierced through with a fork. Let cool slightly.
When the beets are cool enough to handle, peel the skins off with a vegetable peeler.
Coarsely chop the beets and put them in the food processor with the remaining ingredients. Blend until smooth.
Serve with your favourite chopped veggies or gluten-free flatbread. Refrigerate leftovers, if any, in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
