Description
I love hummus; it's easily my favorite dip for vegetables and dressing for salad. Lately I've been experimenting with other flavors, so I've made this roasted beet hummus. Beets give this hummus a mild sweet taste, while making them creamy and vibrant red
 Check out some of my other flavors of hummus as well! They're all either contain either low or no oil, making them lower in fat and calories than traditional. I have plenty of differnent flavors coming from various spices, roasted vegetables, differnet nut and seed butters, and even different beans:
- Classic Tahini Hummus
- Creamy Pesto Hummus
- Roasted Red Pepper Hummus
- Cheesy Garlic Hummus
- Golden Sweet Potato Hummus
- Mediterranean Roasted Eggplant Hummus
- Ginger Lime Black Bean Hummus
- Lemony Taco Inspired Hummus
