Roasted Beet Hummus

ROASTED BEET HUMMUS VEGAN DAIRY-FREE-111

Creamy, earthy, and stunningly pink, this roasted beet hummus brings a nourishing twist to a classic dip. Cooked beets support healthy blood flow and cardiovascular function, while chickpeas offer plant-based protein, resistant starch, and steady, grounded energy. Tahini and extra-virgin olive oil add rich, satisfying fats that create a beautifully smooth texture. This is one of my favorite dishes for holiday gatherings—its jewel-like color instantly brightens a table filled with seasonal foods. Serve it with crisp vegetables, gluten-free crackers, roasted sweet potato wedges, or spread it over warm homemade gluten-free flatbread. For a festive touch, spoon it onto a platter and finish with a drizzle of olive oil, chopped herbs, toasted seeds, or a sprinkle of flaked salt. It keeps wonderfully for several days, and the flavors deepen as it rests, making it an effortless make-ahead dish for cozy weeknights or celebratory meals alike.

Ingredients
2 small beets roasted
3 cups cooked chickpeas
½ cups extra virgin olive oil
½ cups sesame tahini
⅓ cups lemon juice
5 cloves garlic peeled
1½ teaspoons sea salt
1 teaspoons ground cumin
