Ingredients
  • 1 medium sized red beet
  • 3 cups cooked chickpeas
  • ½ cup water
  • 4-5 cloves garlic, pressed
  • 4 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • ½ cup tahini
  • ¾ -1 tsp salt

Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 F (200 C). Wash the beet and remove the leaves. Wrap it in foil, place it on an oven rack and allow it to cook for about 60-70 minutes. You will know it's done because you will be able to pierce it easily with a fork.
  2. When it's done, remove it from the oven, remove the foil and allow it to cool a bit.
  3. Pinch the skin to remove it and cut the beet into quarters.
  4. Add your beet, cooked chickpeas, water, pressed garlic, lemon juice, tahini, salt and cumin to a food processor and blend until completely pureed.
  5. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  6. Serve with cut veggies, crackers, or pita bread.
