Ingredients
  • 20slices of toast bread
  • 200g of cooked or canned chickpeas
  • 2tablespoons of lemon juice
  • 2tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
  • 2cloves of garlic(~5 g each)
  • 50g of boiled beetroots
  • 50g of fresh spinach
  • pinch of salt
Instructions
  1. heat the oven to 220°C/425°F;
  2. cut off the crust of every bread slice and, by using a glass, roll out every slice until it becomes flat;
  3. create a tube from every bread slice and, by using toothpicks, pin together the borders in order to maintain the tube form;
  4. line a baking tray with parchment paper, place on it all the pinned rolls and put them in the oven for 2 – 5 minutes. Cook until the rolls become golden and crunchy, then take them out of the oven and set aside to cool down;
  5. prepare the hummus by putting in a food processor chickpeas, lemon juice, olive oil, crushed garlic and salt. Blend everything together until you get a thick mixture with still visible chickpea pieces;
  6. take out of the food processor half of the mixture and set aside. To the remaining mixture add boiled beetroot cut in smaller pieces and blend everything together until the mixture becomes homogeneous and gets a dark pink color;
  7. set aside the beetroot hummus and rinse the food processor container in order to not mix the colors. Then place in a clean food processor container the remaining part of the classic hummus, add fresh spinach and blend everything together until the mixture becomes homogeneous and gets a light green color;
  8. take out the toothpicks from the bread rolls. Fill one pastry bag with beetroot hummus and another one with spinach hummus. Fill every bread roll from one side with beetroot hummus and from the other side with spinach hummus. If you don’t have pastry bags, use simple plastic bags by cutting off one corner. Just make sure that your chosen plastic bags can be in contact with food.
