I have been making this dip on a weekly basis, it is so good! It is earthy, herby, lemony, and satiating. Serve it with your favorite veggies, and some grain-free crackers for a hearty snack anytime of the day.
Beet & Tahini Dip
- 110 grams of steamed and peeled beets (about 3 small or, 1 large beet)
- 100 grams Culina Plain Coconut Milk Yogurt (or, your favorite thick-style yogurt)
- 75 grams tahini
- Juice of 1 lemon
- a handful of fresh, flat-leaf Parsley
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1 tsp kosher sea salt, more or less to taste
- 3 cracks of black pepper, or however much you like
Directions:
Blend all the ingredients together with an immersion blender until smooth.
Test Kitchen Notes:
You can steam your own beets, or buy steamed beets from the grocery store. Love Beets and Trader Joe’s are two brands of pre-steamed beets that I really enjoy.
You can use any Greek-style yogurt that you like in this recipe. I prefer Culina Plain Coconut Milk Yogurt because it is most like dairy yogurt in texture and tartness; it also has clean and healthy ingredients. Whatever yogurt you use, make sure it is thick, unflavored, and unsweetened.
