  • 3-4 mini or 1 medium Beets Roasted or steamed until fork-tender
  • 2 cloves Garlic Peeled
  • 1 tbsp Tahini
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil Plus extra for drizzling
  • 1/2 Juice of Lemon
  • 1/4 tsp Sea salt

  • 2 tbsp Slivered almonds Toasted
For serving
  • 10 pieces Toasted crostini
  • Raw veggies Such as carrots, cucumbers, and bell peppers

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Place the chickpeas, beets, garlic cloves, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, and sea salt in a food processor and blend until smooth.
  2. Scoop the beetroot hummus into a serving dish, drizzle it with extra olive oil, and top it with fresh parsley and feta cheese.
Serving
  1. Spoon the hummus into a shallow bowl, creating a well in the center for the olive oil drizzle. Scatter crumbled feta, chopped parsley, and slivered almonds on top.
  2. Serve with toasted crostini and a colorful platter of raw veggies.

Notes

For the freshest color and texture, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface before sealing. Adjust lemon and salt before serving as beets vary in sweetness. Toast slivered almonds for enhanced flavor.
