A vibrant and nutritious dip made with cooked beets, chickpeas, and tahini, perfect for any gathering.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cooked beets, diced
  • 1 can (15 ounces) chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2-3 tablespoons water (as needed)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cooked beets by dicing them into smaller pieces for easier blending.
  2. Combine the diced beets, chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and cumin into a food processor.
  3. Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth, pausing to scrape down the sides as needed.
  4. Drizzle in the olive oil while the processor is running to ensure it incorporates well into the hummus.
  5. Adjust the consistency by adding water, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired thickness.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary—more salt, garlic, or lemon juice can elevate the flavors.
  7. Serve the beet hummus in a bowl, drizzling a touch of olive oil on top, and sprinkle with fresh herbs or seeds for added flair.
  8. Enjoy! Pair with fresh veggies, pita chips, or as a spread on your favorite sandwiches.

Notes

For deeper flavor, consider roasting the beets instead of boiling. Chill before serving to intensify flavors.
