There is something so satisfying about making your own hummus at home. This beet version is creamy and smooth, and the vibrant pink color always gets people talking at the dinner table.

I love serving this as part of a snack plate with fresh vegetables or warm pita bread. The sweetness of the beets balances the savory chickpeas perfectly, making it a very refreshing snack or appetizer.

  • 1 medium beet, roasted and peeled
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 small garlic clove, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

Tips

Store your hummus in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days. It tastes great served with carrot sticks, cucumber slices, or toasted pita wedges.
