Whip up this vibrant Beet Hummus with Yogurt and Pistachio for a beautiful dip that tastes as good as it looks. This recipe is simple and full of fresh flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cooked beets, chopped
  • 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons tahini
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1/4 cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup shelled pistachios, roughly chopped, for topping

Instructions

  1. Place the chopped beets, chickpeas, Greek yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper into a food processor.
  2. Process the mixture until it is completely smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides a few times.
  3. Taste the hummus and adjust salt or lemon juice as needed. If the hummus is too thick, add water one teaspoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
  4. Transfer the beet hummus to a serving bowl.
  5. Drizzle the top with a bit of extra olive oil.
  6. Sprinkle the chopped pistachios over the top.
  7. Serve immediately or cover and chill for later.

Notes

  • For the best flavor, use roasted or boiled beets, not pickled.
  • If you prefer a tangier hummus, increase the lemon juice by one teaspoon.
  • This dip pairs wonderfully with warm pita bread or fresh vegetables like carrots and celery.
