Beet Humus

Yummy appetizer
Ingredients
-
1. Place cleaned beets in electric pressure cooker and cook until tender. My large beets were done perfectly on high pressure for 34 minutes. You can prepare on the stove, it will take longer. Once beets are tender remove and set aside to cool a few minutes.
2. Using gloves (you don't want stained hands do you?) and paper towels rub off the skins and toss. Then small dice the beets and place in a food processor or high-speed blender along with chickpeas, garlic powder, cumin, mint, and tahini. Process to a smooth paste that you prefer.
3. Now add lemon and orange juice to taste. You want to brighten the dip. Add salt and pepper to taste. An adjust seasonings as desired.
4. Garnish with feta and herbs if desired. Or pine nuts, caramelized onions, sumac, or a drizzle of olive oil.
