What you need to make Vibrant Roasted Beet Hummus

Get your blender ready and gather the ingredients below.

1 big (or 2 small) roasted beets

1 can garbanzo beans (chick peas)- organic

1/4 c tahini

1 lemon

1/4 c olive oil

2 cloves garlic

1/2 tsp cumin

salt

2/3 c aquafaba (the liquid that was in the can with the beans)

How to Make It

Strain your garbanzo beans and reserve the aquafaba (the liquid from the can). Then add your beans, tahini, the juice of one lemon, olive oil, garlic, cumin, and 1/3 c aquafaba into the blender. Place your beets on top. Add a good pinch or two of salt and puree.

Note: Use the other 1/3 c aquafaba to reach the consistency you like!

Taste for salt and adjust as needed. Spoon the hummus into your serving dish and garnish! I topped mine with a drizzle of olive oil, parsley and sesame seeds.

BAM!! The most delicious and vibrant roasted beet hummus!! Can you imagine how stunning this will be placed on a platter with vegetables and crackers? Or spread over a flatbread?!! Yum!

Storage

Store your roasted beet hummus in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Though, it is so tasty, I doubt it’ll last that long!
