Meet our Golden Glow Hummus, the latest creation from our good clean kitchen!

This delicious “detox” dip is a nutritional powerhouse featuring good-for-your-gut ginger, metabolism boosting cayenne pepper, and turmeric…the ultimate anti-inflammatory spice. It’s bright, beautiful and full of glow inducing nutrients!

Ingredients:

• 15 1/2 ounce can of chickpeas, drained

• 2 golden beets, roasted (You can use red beets.…but your hummus won’t be golden!))

• 3 tablespoon olive oil

• 3 tablespoons tahini

• 2 tablespoon lemon juice (juice of 1 lemon)

• 1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger

• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (more to taste)

• 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric

• 2 large clove of garlic (more to taste)

• pinch of cayenne

• pinch of Spanish paprika

Instructions:

Prepare the beets: Preheat the oven to 400. If the beets still have their leafy tops, cut off the tops close to the tops of the beet, leaving yourself enough to grip. Scrub the beets thoroughly, then wrap them loosely in aluminum foil with a drizzle of olive oil.

Place the wrapped beets on a rimmed baking sheet to catch drips. Roast for 50 to 60 minutes. (Beets are done when a fork or skewer slides easily to the center of the beet.) Allow to cool completely before peeling.

To prepare the hummus: Add all the ingredients to a food processor and blend until smooth. You may need to scrape down the sides of the bowl during processing.

Serve with your favorite vegetables and crackers!
