Ingredients
- 2 medium Beets
- 1 cup Cauliflower florets
- 0.25 cup Tahini
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 medium Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Pepper
- 0.25 cup Water
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Wash the beets thoroughly and wrap them individually in aluminum foil. Place the wrapped beets on a baking sheet.
Step 3
Roast the beets in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes or until they are fork-tender.
Step 4
While the beets are roasting, steam the cauliflower florets for about 8-10 minutes until tender.
Step 5
Once the beets are cool enough to handle, peel the skin off using your fingers or a knife, then roughly chop them.
Step 6
In a food processor, combine the roasted beets, steamed cauliflower, tahini, lemon juice, garlic cloves, olive oil, cumin, salt, pepper, and water.
Step 7
Blend the ingredients until smooth, scraping down the sides of the food processor as necessary. Feel free to add more water if needed, to reach your desired consistency.
Step 8
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt, pepper, or lemon juice, if required.
Step 9
Transfer the beet hummus to a serving bowl and garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
Step 10
Serve chilled or at room temperature with low-carb vegetables or your choice of low-carb crackers.
