This is a delicious layered salad with beets and hummus that will give your taste buds a real treat. It’s simply amazing and very easy to make as well. The beets and hummus together gives a mild and soft flavor. It’s full of nutrients and delicious. I tried this recipe last weekend for our Sunday Brunch and it was such a success that my husband asked me to make it again soon.
This layered salad with beets and hummus is an excellent choice to take to work the next day for lunch, all you have to do is keep it in the fridge. It’s also a perfect recipe for celebrations or parties as it looks kinda fancy.
Good luck!
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 25-30 minutes (time to cook the beets)
- 3 organic red beets
- 2 organic yellow beets
- 6 tbsp. (60ml) of fresh coriander
- 6 tbsp. (90ml) of olive oil
- Juice of 1/2 of organic lemon
- Hummus
- Salt and pepper
- Cook the beets in water with coarse salt for about 25-30 minutes, depending on their size. Verify with a knife. You can cook them ahead or the day before. Peel them when they’re cooked and colder. It will be much easier than if you do it when raw.
- In a small hand chopper, put the oil, the lemon juice, the coriander, the salt and the pepper. Mix until it’s all well blended. That will be your vinaigrette.
- Slice your beets and start to assemble them with the hummus.
- First place the red beet, spread about 1 tsp. (5ml) of hummus. Repeat with the slice of yellow beet with another teaspoon of hummus and finish with a last slice of red beet.
- Put a few drops of vinaigrette on top, some fresh pepper and serve with a few lettuce on the side.
