Ingredients

  • 1 large roasted red beets or golden beets or 2 medium, about 3oz, follow this tutorial for Instant Pot Beets.
  • 1 (14 oz) can low sodium chickpeas drained and rinsed
  • 2 large garlic cloves minced (highly recommend fresh here!)

Notes

I prepared my beets in the Instant Pot.
ROAST BEETS - cover beets in aluminum foil and place on a baking sheet. Bake at 375ºF for 45-50 minutes, depending on size of beets. Rinse under cold water and rub skin off. Or I like the pre-packaged Love Beets brand.
STORAGE - beet hummus should keep covered in fridge for 5-7 days.
