  • 100 gr quinoa grains
  • 1 tbsp tahini
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 4 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1/2 tbsp cumin powder
  • Sea Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Wash the quinoa and cook it according to its instructions. The cooking time is usually 15 to 20 minutes. Let it cool.

  2. Then add the quinoa and the rest of the ingredients to the food processor and blend them until you get a fine-textured paste. Add the beets gradually and test it as you go until you get the desired flavor.

  3. If you want the hummus to have a creamier consistency, you can add a little more olive oil.

  4. Make sure to try it again and adjust the salt as needed.

  5. Serve it with chopped fresh herbs and a drizzle of olive oil, then pair it with some low-carb bread, gluten-free flax crackers, or your favorite raw vegetables.
