I roasted a big bunch of beets and still had a few leftover and wanted to share a few beet tips for you guys. You never know what to do with a spare beet or two so take a look at these.
Of course my go to is a smoothie, you know how much I love my smoothies. Today was a strawberry banana and beet smoothie.
A handful of ice, about a cup of strawberries, one banana and 1 cups of milk. Don’t forget to pop in the beet!
The beet adds a slight sweetness and awesome color! The kids were hesitant about the beet in there but really loved this smoothie, as did I.
One more beet left to use so I made some beet hummus. If you need a different appetizer for company coming, a pop of color on a veggie platter etc. this one works.
Start with a tub of store bought hummus, or better yet if you have time, whip up some homemade! Empty it into a food processor with one beet. Only a single beet is used here.
The color on this hummus is amazing. We spread it on crackers and topped it with a tiny bit of dill. So so good, fast and impressive. Enjoy!
