You’re going to be dipping everything into this beautiful vibrant 5-Minute Creamy Beetroot Hummus! It looks stunning, it’s healthy and it all comes together in 5 minutes!
A lot of people are intolerant to chickpeas, but that doesn’t mean, that they have to miss out on hummus!
So, this beetroot hummus recipe is for you!
And it’s good, too. The beetroot and the chickpeas provide richness, texture, and a bit of sweetness, while cumin adds its aromatic warmth. Plus, the lemon juice and zest brighten all the things with the acidity.
Bonus? There’s no need to roast the beetroots! I mean, you can if you really want to, but canned or vacuum-packed beetroots work just fine, they have about the same nutritional value as of fresh beets and save you time.
Does my lazy recipe make sense? 😀 The more simple we keep things, the better!
This delicious velvety smooth dip or spread is perfect for a large crowd and requires so little effort and a few basic cupboard essentials. Plus, it makes a gorgeous vegan appetizer for your next holiday parties.
