Beet Hummus, Yum!
December 28, 2018
If you are looking for a beautiful, healthy, and delicious appetizer to bring to your next party, why not try beet hummus?
Ingredients:
1 medium red beet
1 large clove of garlic, unpeeled
1 can white beans, rinsed and drained
Juice of ½ a lemon (about ½ tablespoon)
¼ cup Olive Oil
½ teaspoon salt
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Wash the beet and place with garlic clove on a sheet of foil. Pull up the sides of the foil and fold to make a packet, leaving room so the air can circulate inside.
Bake for 45 minutes, or until beet is tender when poked with a knife. Set aside to cool.
Put a plastic bag over your hand and gently remove skin from the beet and garlic (the bag will keep your hand clean).
Place all ingredients into a food processor or blender and puree until smooth.
Serve with cut up veggies! Hummus will keep in the fridge for up to 1 week.
