Over the weekend I did a poll on Instastories asking if you’d rather see a workout or recipe post on the blog this week. Food was the clear winner. I aim to please, so a new recipe it is! This beet cauliflower hummus recipe makes a pretty big batch, so I’ve been adding it to all the things. It’s packed with good-for-you ingredients including beets.<\/strong> Beets are awesome for athletic performance, so maybe a few servings of this hummus will boost enthusiasm for next week’s workout post?! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s something you should know about this hummus. It doesn’t contain chickpeas.<\/strong> The title of this post may have clued you in on that, but just wanted to get that out in the open. Chickpeas are perfectly healthy delightful little legumes. But for reasons I don’t need to bore you with, I try to only eat them occasionally. But you know what I want to eat more than occasionally? Hummus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think by definition hummus contains chickpeas, but I don’t like to follow rules. Just kidding, I’m a first child and I follow all of the rules. EXCEPT in the kitchen – there I like to do things my own way. I also wear white pants after Labor Day. And was almost arrested that one time… <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyway, you’re not going to miss the chickpeas in this recipe. And<\/a> if you’re doing a Whole30<\/a>, following a paleo diet, or just trying to eat more vegetables this “hummus” is perfect for you.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was intrigued but skeptical when I first saw recipes for cauliflower hummus, so if you’re a little leery I get it. The tahini, lemon juice, and cumin all still come together to create that traditional hummus flavor. The beets, rosemary, and balsamic vinegar add a unique spin, because I didn’t want to be TOO traditional. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You’re also not going to miss the chickpeas when you realize swapping out that legume for a vegetable gets you a bigger serving size. Yes, please. <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Hummus is good on everything – salad, mixed with eggs (try it), added to a Buddha bowl, and, ya know, eaten as a spread or dip like normal people do. This recipe is packed with awesome healthy and nourishing ingredients, so you can feel good about adding it to everything. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
