If you're looking to add a vibrant, nutritious twist to your snack game, this Lemon Roasted Beet Hummus is absolutely perfect. Not only visually stunning with its bright pink hue, but it's also packed with fiber and essential nutrients to keep your gut happy.

At Haus of V, I'm on a personal quest to keep adding delicious fiber-packed foods into my diet for weight management and to support my hormone and gut health.

Why Fiber Matters

Fiber is a crucial part of a healthy diet, yet most people don't get enough of it. A fiber-rich diet supports digestion, helps regulate blood sugar, and keeps you feeling full longer—making it a key player in weight management and overall health. Adding fiber from a variety of plant-based sources, like beets and chickpeas, can improve gut health and even lower the risk of heart disease.

I added pickled garlic on top, EVOO and served with red, orange and yellow peppers.

Lemon Roasted Beet Hummus Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 medium beet, roasted and peeled
  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 large lemon, zested
  • 1/2 large lemon, juiced
  • 1 healthy pinch salt and black pepper
  • 2 large cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 heaping Tbsp tahini (I use Trader Joe's)
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp cumin

Instructions

  1. Roast your beet at 400°F for about 40–50 minutes, then let it cool and remove the skin.
  2. Blend the beet, chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, olive oil, salt, and cumin in a food processor.
  3. Add water as needed to achieve a creamy consistency.
  4. Serve with veggies, whole grain crackers, or as a spread on avocado toast.
