Homemade hummus<\/a> is incredibly easy to make. Why not kick it up a notch in the nutrition department by adding some vibrantly hued beets? Phytochemicals<\/a> in beets are responsible for their deep red color and they also act as antioxidants within the body. So enjoy this supercharged hummus with veggies, on a sandwich or just by the spoonful! It packs six grams of protein<\/a> per quarter-cup serving.<\/p>\n
