Ingredients

1 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil divided
1 can no salt added white kidney beans drained and rinsed

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Add the beets to a small bowl and toss with 1/2 tablespoon of oil. Spread out on baking sheet and roast for 30-35 minutes, or until the beets are tender. Stir or flip a few times to ensure they don't burn. Remove from oven and let cool enough to handle.
Add the beets and remaining ingredients to a food processor bowl, and process on high until the mixture is smooth and creamy. You may need to stop the food processor a few times to scrape down the sides.
Scoop the hummus into a bowl and serve immediately, or place in the refrigerator to allow it to cool and firm up.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and enjoy within 4-5 days.

Notes

If you're pressed for time and/or don't have fresh beets, you can use pre-cooked vacuum-packed or frozen beets. If they're frozen, just make sure they're thawed first.
You can add more or less Thai chili pepper depending on how hot and spicy you like your hummus.
If you don't have a food processor, you can make this hummus in a blender.
