Instructions

Start by peeling the cooked or roasted beets and cutting them into smaller chunks for easier blending.
In a food processor or blender, combine the beets, chickpeas, tahini, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Blend the ingredients until smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick add water or extra olive oil to adjust the consistency.
Taste the beet hummus and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Once the hummus reaches desired taste and texture, transfer it to a serving dish.
Optional, sprinkle some sesame seeds or chopped fresh herbs on top.
Serve the beet hummus with pita bread, carrot sticks, or cucumber slices.
