Oooo Blushing Beet Hummus Swirl — that name is pure art on a plate 🌺🫶💖 It’s vibrant, earthy, creamy, and totally swoon-worthy as a dip, spread, or centerpiece for a mezze board. Here’s the pretty-in-pink recipe:
🌺 Blushing Beet Hummus Swirl
Ingredients:
- 1 medium beet, roasted or steamed until soft
- 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1/4 cup tahini
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 garlic clove
- 2–3 tbsp olive oil
- Salt to taste
- Optional: a pinch of cumin or a dash of za’atar for extra depth
- Ice water (1–2 tbsp) for fluffier texture
Topping / Swirl Options:
- Extra olive oil drizzle
- Dollop of plain hummus or yogurt for that swirl contrast
- Toasted sesame seeds or hemp hearts
- Microgreens or chopped herbs for garnish 🌿
Instructions:
- If using raw beet, roast it wrapped in foil at 400°F (200°C) for ~45 min until fork-tender. Let cool, then peel.
- In a food processor, blend beet, chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and olive oil.
- Add 1–2 tbsp cold water to help smooth it out and make it extra whipped.
- Taste and adjust — more lemon for zing, more tahini for richness, more beet for color.
- Scoop into a bowl and use a spoon to create swoops and swirls. Drizzle with olive oil, add a contrasting dollop (like yogurt or plain hummus), and garnish like the food stylist you are.

It’s the kind of dip you serve at a brunch and everyone says, “Wait… what is this magical pink stuff??” 💅✨
