Roasted Red Beet Humus

Or Hummus, rather. Typo.
You gotta try it! (It's really good if you use balsamic vinegar instead of lemon.)
Balsamic vinegar is good with beetroot in salads, certainly. But beetroot hummus sounds very odd. I have trouble seeing how it would go well with tahini and garlic.

Sounds delicious. I need to do some hummus soon, I keep forgetting. One of the challenges with being a lover of good food is that there is way too much to pick from, and I sometimes forget about something we (I) made some time back.

Sorry - in my opinion it's right up there with hummus and high quality chocolate chips, i.e., a culinary affront to both.

I want to try it. What's a good recipe?
I didn't follow a recipe. I just tossed several cloves of garlic, some hot smoked paprika, cumin, coriander, salt, pepper and a small amount of olive oil into my food processor and let it whirl. Then I added a good amount (about a half cup or more) of tahini, let it whirl, followed by a can of drained and rinsed garbanzo beans, and processed until smooth.
Then I added chopped two chilled roasted beets (to roast beets: peel beets, wrap in foil, set on pan, and bake at 400℉ for about 75 minutes let cool, then chill in refrigerator.) Add balsamic vinegar or lemon juice to taste and process until smooth.

I was thinking about making it like baba ganoush using roasted beets instead of eggplant, but I thought it would be too sweet, so I added the garbanzo beans to help cut the sweetness and made hummus instead.

Sabra sells it.

Recipes are for the uncreative.
