Simple Beetroot Dip 3 Ways

June 14, 2016 By Hana 18 Comments

Simple Beetroot Dip 3 Ways

I’m a huge fan of beetroot and typically would eat one a day. This beautifully rich coloured root vegetable is full of goodness and I have fond memories of my grandmother often eating raw grated beetroot with some cream. So simple yet very tasty.

I love beetroot many ways, but eating it raw is the one I love the most. This is how I would normally eat it, grate it, add a tone of garlic and a few different ingredients depending on what I have in my pantry. Any of these dips are so quick to whip up and perfect for a quick snack or addition to your lunch or dinner.

Simple Beetroot Dip 3 Ways

So here you have it 3 simple and quick ways to eat beetroot. I make the tahini version the most often because I always have some in the fridge, but all of them are great I promise. I tend to just finely grate the beetroot by hand, but feel free to use a food processor.

You can get really creative with these recipes, add different ingredients and find the one that you love the most. The crackers you see in the pics are my new recipe that’s coming up in the next post:) In the meantime check out my Parsnip and Thyme Grain Free Crackers or Buckwheat and Rosemary Crackers recipes, both equally amazing. Enjoy!

    How gorgeous and colourful!! This post really brightened up my morning. I was keen to make this today after seeing these beautiful pics on your blog and remembering just how delicious it was when you first introduced me to the delights of this dip… but I can’t do everything and today was banana bread day. So, tomorrow I’ll give it a whirl… Thanks again for the lovely wholefood inspiration! X

    Hi Hana, I made your beetroot and tahini dip earlier: so yummy! I had a tiring day of treatment and this dish really cheered me up. I made your buckwheat and rosemary crackers too which also made me very happy :-) I used a really nice sprouted whole buckwheat flour and they were delicious. Thank you my dear friend! Txxx

Happy New Year beautiful! ✨ I’m feeling that Happy New Year beautiful! ✨

I’m feeling that this is the year we all need to ease into. Use this sacred pause we’re in until the 5th of January to really go within and listen deeply to what are you being called to birth this year. Forget creating goals from your ego. What are those whispers of your soul calling you to? Is it time to take the lead in your life? ✨

If this year is a continuation of 2020 we will need more conscious embodied leaders taking charge to create the change our planet needs. It’s us who create the future. ✨

Now that many of us are awake we need conscious women and men to walk together hand in hand! We’ve got this! 

✨🕊✨

Sending so much Love Hana xx

What dessert are you making this year? To be honest I’ve got my gingerbread cookies stored in fridge, the leftover chocolate cranberry orange cake in freezer so I’m quite sorted!
