Ingredients
  

1 medium cooked beetroot (peeled and diced)

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas (drained and rinsed)

2 tablespoons tahini

2 tablespoons olive oil (plus extra for drizzling)

1 garlic clove (minced)

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon ground cumin

Salt and pepper to taste

4 slices of whole-grain or sourdough bread

Fresh herbs (like dill or parsley, for garnish)

Toasted sesame seeds or pumpkin seeds (for garnish)

Optional toppings: avocado slices, microgreens, or radish slices

Instructions
 

Make the Beet Hummus: In a food processor, combine the cooked beetroot, chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, and cumin. Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides as necessary. If the mixture is too thick, add a tablespoon of water at a time until you reach your desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

    Prepare the Toast: While making the hummus, toast the slices of bread until they are golden brown and crispy.

      Assemble the Toasts: Spread a generous layer of the vibrant beet hummus on each slice of toasted bread.

        Garnish: Drizzle a little olive oil over the hummus. Top with fresh herbs, a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds or pumpkin seeds, and any optional toppings like avocado slices or microgreens.

          Serve: Arrange the toast on a plate, serve immediately, and enjoy the burst of flavors and colors!
