Infused with aromatic herbs and spices and roasted garlic, this roasted beet dip is flavorful, colorful and oh-so addictive!

The only way to start a Monday is with bright and colorful food. Yes? But just colorful won’t cut it, cuz we need some major flavor too! Yes and yes!!

Well, I really hope you love beets. I have one deliciously addictive beet dip for ya. You might already know this, but I’ll say it again. I love me some beets! I don’t understand how this slightly earthy, yet sweet root vegetable tastes like dirt to some, including my husband. But that’s ok, more for me!!

Roasting is my favorite way of cooking beets. In my opinion, this simple and effortless method brings out the best flavors in beets.

Speaking of flavor, we’ll be mixing bunch of aromatic spices together for this dip. Think: cumin, coriander, chili powder! Can you smell these?? Ahhh, so good!

Aromatic spices for Roasted Beet Dip

Together with cilantro and dill, this dip is overloaded with flavors. A touch of lemon juice is added for brightness, and a drizzle of olive oil for smoothness. I also added some walnuts for a little bit of texture. Splendid!!

Serve this dip with some tortilla chips, or smeared on a slice of baguette. Or just grab a spoon, if that’s how you roll.

Wishing you a bright and productive week ahead. Thanks for stopping by!

Ingredients

  • 2-3 medium beets about 12oz
  • 1 head of garlic
  • ½ cup 50gr walnuts
  • ½ cup cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons dill paste*
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • Baguette and/or tortilla chips for serving
Note: I test all my recipes with both measurements for the most precise and accurate result!

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Wrap each beet individually in foil.
  • Cut the top of the garlic head to expose the cloves. Drizzle about 1 teaspoon of olive oil and wrap in foil.
  • Roast** the beets and the garlic for about 45 minutes, or until the beets are fork-tender.
  • Once the beets are cooled, trim the top and peel the skin. Cut each beet into a few slices.
  • In the food processor, place all the ingredients and squeeze the roasted garlic (discard the skin). Blend until smooth. Adjust the salt to taste.
  • Serve with sliced baguette, and/or tortilla chips.

Tips & Notes:

*Dill paste is basically a fresh dill in a tube. You can substitute with fresh dill.
**Beets and garlic can be roasted a day in advance.
Store in the airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

    This looks amazing – I love beets and the wonderful colour they bring to a dish. I’ve tried making many things with beets, including ice cream, but never a dip. Can’t wait to try.

    Oh my goodness…I love love love beets. Who cares if they are popular…our garden has been taken over by weeds since the basement flooded and all hands are needed on deck to get that all set up. My dad told me if I’m up for a safari, there might be some beets to pull out there though and now I´m very much hoping that the rabbits didn´t get there first!

      Oh no, so sorry to hear about the troubles with the flooding! That’s devastating. Hope you’ll find some beets though. 🙂

    I’ve seen a few (beet) hummus recipes but YOU just topped it with your interesting combo of herbs and spices. Dill, cilantro, chili powder…..this is almost like a detox snack!
