Golden Beet Hummus

Course: Appetizers
Author: Taji Marie
This hummus is lighter and sweeter than it’s chickpea counterpart. Be sure to pat the beets dry so you don’t get any unwanted water in your mixture. Although I love the light golden color of this hummus, it’s also delicious made with red beets.
