Recipe Summary Easy Beet Hummus

Turn regular hummus into a colorful, healthier dip by adding beets! This is the perfect use for leftover beets you don't know what to do with. Serve with vegetables, crackers, or pita wedges.

Ingredients | How To Eat Sugar Beets

2 small cooked beets, chopped

1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained with liquid reserved

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

2 tablespoons tahini

1 clove garlic, minced

¾ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon cumin

Directions

Combine beets, chickpeas, lemon juice, tahini, garlic, salt, and cumin in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until pureed. Pour reserved chickpea liquid in slowly, with the processor running, until hummus is smooth and desired consistency is achieved.

If you don't have any leftover beets, roast 2 small beets (about 1/4 pound) in the oven wrapped in aluminum foil with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt at 375 degrees (180 degrees celsius) for 45 minutes, or until soft. You can then let cool and peel to use in the hummus.
