Beet Hummus
Uses [KitchenAid® K150 Blender](https://www.kitchenaid.com/countertop-appliances/blenders/blender-products/p.k150-3-speed-ice-crushing-blender.ksb1325pa.html).
Ingredients
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon minced garlic (1 clove)
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons tahini
1 cup roasted purple beets (2 cups raw beets makes 1 cup roasted beets)
1 can chickpeas (15 oz. drained and rinsed)
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil (plus more to serve)
Step by step
Throw the ingredients into your KitchenAid® blender in the order listed. Secure the lid, remove the center lid cap, and insert the tamper. Blend on high for 30 to 60 seconds using the tamper to guide the ingredients through the blades until smooth and creamy.
You may need to stop the machine and scrape down the sides of the container so that you don’t get bits of chickpea and other ingredients in the hummus when you scrape the mixture out of the container.
Serve with a drizzle of olive oil and enjoy with chips, crackers, veggie sticks, or slathered on sandwiches or wraps.
