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:

ROASTED BEETS

HUMMUS

1. Cut the ends off your beets, wrap in aluminum foil, and bake wrapped beets at 400F for 40 mins or until a knife goes through with ease

2. Combine roasted beets (with skins!) with the rest of ingredients in a food processor, and blend until smooth

3. Optionally, saute the stems and leaves with a little salt and olive oil until crispy, and use as a garnish on top of your hummus
