Beet Hummus

💗 This vibrant beet hummus is as nourishing as it is beautiful—perfect for hormone support, liver health, and balancing blood sugar. Beets provide natural detoxification support and help improve circulation, while chickpeas and tahini offer a steady stream of plant-based protein, fiber, and healthy fats. Olive oil and lemon round it out with anti-inflammatory and immune-supportive benefits.

Serve it as a snack with sliced veggies, as a spread on wraps and bowls, or as a colorful appetizer on your next mezze platter. It’s creamy, tangy, earthy—and undeniably pretty in pink.
