Hummus, houmus, houmous, hommus - however you want to spell it, I love it!
Up until recently, this was a recipe I only made when we had people coming over - but lately I've realised it's the perfect meal prep recipe for delicious lunches all week long.
It's quick, easy and full of flavour and perfect for eating with veggies and crackers or putting in a sandwich or wrap.
It even hides a not-so-sneaky (because of the colour) serve of vegetables and makes it easy to eat even more.
Beets also have a whole host of nutritional benefits - they're packed with immune boosting vitamin C, folate, iron and plenty of other nutrients.
So let me share the recipe with you! >>
Easy Creamy Beet Hummus Recipe
gluten free, vegan, low fat, clean eating recipe, sugar free, healthy
2-3 small cooked beets (I use LoveBeets but you can also boil/roast and peel fresh beets)
1 can chickpeas, drained
2 tbsp tahini
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 clove garlic, crushed
1-2 tbsp of water
Salt and pepper, to taste
(Optional: I usually add a little bit of dill, horseradish, oregano and whatever else I feel like)
- Add all of your ingredients except for the water and salt and pepper (I usually start with 2 beets and add more if needed) to a food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
- Add as much water as needed to make a smooth and creamy hummus.
- Season to taste and add any extra flavours/spices/herbs etc.
- Enjoy immediately or keep in the fridge for up to a week.
But tell me, what's your favourite kind of dip?
And what are some of your go-to meal prep recipes/items?
