I went to Tartine the other day for lunch and was obsessed with their beet hummus because it was a beautiful pink hue, but it also tasted delightful! I decided to go ahead and try my own version at home and here it is! It tastes great, takes 5 minutes to make, and will brighten up any crudite platter :)
Ingredients:
1 raw medium/large beet, peeled and diced
1 cup cooked chickpeas (canned is fine)
3 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp tahini
2 tbsp water
Juice from ½ lemon (about 2 tbsp)
½ tsp salt
Directions
Add all ingredients to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Add extra salt if needed!
Serve with fresh vegetables, crackers, or slices of crusty bread
