Do you want to surprise your guests with a very unusual and versatile sauce without spending time at the stove? Then chickpea and beet hummus is the way to go! I literally love it! Just look at the fantastic color that comes out once it’s prepared; it will be very scenic on your crostini, snacks, and everything else you can think of to fill within a buffet or appetizer. If this still hasn’t convinced you, just buy a package of chickpeas and a package of already steamed red beets at the supermarket, or if you have leftovers from a previous recipe like I did, even better, and you’re good to go!!! No pots, just a blender or a mixer, and in 5 minutes you will have a tasty and inviting version of the typical Middle Eastern sauce. I don’t think it can get any easier or quicker than this! But if this still hasn’t convinced you, let me say a few words about the healthy aspect of this sauce, because in addition to the undisputed and well-known properties of legumes (rich in minerals and vitamins), capable of controlling cholesterol and blood sugar levels, reducing the risk of diabetes, let’s not underestimate the red beets which are equal in richness of nutritional benefits to chickpeas and also stand out for their phytotherapeutic, purifying, remineralizing, and refreshing properties. So, have I convinced you?
