Beetroot hummus

Morning:)
So it seems like I get slightly 'fixated' on a certain veggie now and then and just make as many things as I can out of it!（awwww just got this picture in my head of me squeezing the life out of this veggie, ok I probably need to get some breakfast before I go a bit hyper!).
Last week was my pumpkin obsession and this morning was the turn of the beautiful beetroot:)

BEETROOT HUMMUS
There's no fixed amounts to this, just taste as you go along and adjust to your liking!

• 90 g beetroot purée (boil and blend up)
• 190 g chickpeas, cooked/ canned & drained
• About 2 tsps tahini ( I was out of tahini so used peanut butter instead)
• Lemon juice
• Black pepper
• Garlic
• Salt
• 2 tsp olive oil 

1. Blend all of the above together to obtain a smooth paste, adjust the amounts of lemon juice and garlic to your own taste.

How gorgeous does this look! Serve with crudités, flatbreads etc...

Coming up soon: chocolate & beetroot gluten free cake and awesome beetroot veggie burgers.

As a side note, I now have beautifully pink fingers-.-, do wear gloves if possible, especially when grating beetroot!
