Beet Jalapeno Hummus

Beet Jalapeno Hummus

This hummus is mildly spicy and super delicious!

This beautiful pink and healthy beet jalapeno hummus variation is so quick, you’ll want to make it for entertaining, or everyday snacks. This plant based dip is so great tasting, and inexpensive, just process all the ingredients in a food processor until smooth, and have chopped dipping vegetables ready. Simple! For some reason, once you add the jalapeno, it makes the chickpeas taste, a bit like tortilla chips have been mixed in! Delicious!

Even better…

These chickpeas are loaded with protein, high-fiber, and anti-inflammatory nutrients that make it a great snack for weight loss, stabilizing blood sugar, and that’s not even addressing the superfood beets ingredient!
