## Beetroot chickpea spread

By Roisin

 I had some beetroot in the fridge from my Veggie Box and I knew I wanted to use them up... I wasn't expecting them to turn out this delicious!

- **Category: **Spead, Dips

- **Diet:**
- Vegan

- **Prep Time: **  5min
- **Cook Time: **  30min
- **Total Time: **  35min

### Ingredients

- 3 small - medium beetroots
- 1 can of chickpeas
- 1 garlic clove
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 35g of walnuts
- 30ml olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste

### Intructions

1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Wash your beetroot and chop into quarters. When the water is boiling add the beetroot and simmer for 30 minutes, until tender ish. 
2. Transfer the beetroot to a food processor with all other ingredients. Pulse the ingredients until it is consistency you like. I processed for about a minute to keep it chunky but spreadable.
3. Transfer to an air tight container and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes. Don't forget to scrape every last drop from the food processor. I had to taste it before it event made it to the fridge and was not disappointed! 
4. Enjoy on bread with some feta and honey!

### Notes

 I also love it with some baked tortilla wraps, chopped carrots, or as a spread in a sandwich. I normally wouldn't be excited about beetroot and was a little disappointed when it arrived in my veggie box - with this recipe I'll never be disappointed again! Simply divine!
