Instructions
Blend. To a food processor, add peeled beets, extra virgin olive oil, cooked or canned white beans, garlic, tahini, lemon juice, and salt. You might have to scrape down the sides of the food processor.
Adjust seasoning. You can add some of the white beans liquid - in small amounts until you reach the desired consistency. I use about 8 tablespoons.
Serve in a small bowl and garnish with more extra virgin olive oil. Check the post suggestions for serving and garnishing.
