I absolutely love hummus, it is so healthy and packed full of nutritional benefits. I try to make a batch at least once a week to store in my fridge as a healthy snack. This week I thought I would mix it up a bit and experiment with flavours. I bring to you – Beetroot Hummus! The classic with a twist and I can guarantee you, there is no going back! This dip is packed full of flavour and nutritional benefits.
