Ingredients
  

  • 1 beetroots roasted peeled and diced
  • 15 ounces Chickpeas drained and rinsed
  • 2 tablespoons tahini
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt to taste
  • black pepper powder
  • 1 pinch lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon pomegranate

Instructions
 

  • In a food processor, combine the roasted beetroots, chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
  • If the hummus is too thick, add water or olive oil, one tablespoon at a time, until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with optional toppings like pomegranate, zattar, sesame and boiled chickpeas.
  • Enjoy your homemade roasted beetroot hummus with your favorite dippers!

Notes

  • You can use canned chickpeas for the convenience. But I mostly use pressure cooked chickpeas that I make in large quantity during my weekly meal prep.
