Beet Hummus

By Bizzy319

Think you don't like beets? I don't either, but I love this beet hummus - the beets just give it a slightly sweetness to the tahini, plus it looks pretty!

Ingredients

• 2 medium beets
• 2 tablespoons tahini sesame seed paste
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• zest of one lemon
• 1 clove garlic
• 1 tablespoon ground cumin
• 1 15 oz. can garbanzo beans
• 1 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper
• salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

Step 1

Cook beets for 30 minutes on top of the stove until tender over low heat. Cool, peel and put everything in a food processor and blend until smooth. Refrigerate. Serve with raw vegetables and crackers.
