    This vibrant pink hummus platter is a fun, healthy way to get kids excited about veggies. Packed with goodness and perfect for sharing, it’s great for lunch, after-school snacks, and picnics with the family.

    For the hummus:

    • 400g cooked chickpeas
    • 3 medium beetroots
    • 1 garlic clove
    • 2 tbsp tahini
    • ½ lemon (juice)
    • 2 tbsp olive oil
    • Salt and pepper
    • Add water if needed
    • Your favourite dipping vegetables - carrot sticks, cucumber slices, cherry tomatoes, and sliced peppers
    • Pita bread

    For the topping:

    • A handful of toasted hazelnuts
    • A sprinkle of pomegranate seeds
    • A drizzle of olive oil

    Here's how it's done...

    Step 1

    Make the hummus: Add the chickpeas, beetroot, garlic, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper in a blender.



    Step 2

    Blend until smooth and creamy. If it’s too thick, add a little water, one tablespoon at a time.



    Step 3

    Serve it up: Spoon the hummus onto a large serving plate or shallow bowl and spread it out with the back of a spoon.



    Step 4

    Add your toppings: Scatter the toasted hazelnuts and pomegranate seeds over the top, then drizzle with a little more olive oil.



    Step 5

    Build your platter: Surround the hummus with your favourite colourful dipping veggies think carrot sticks, cucumber slices, cherry tomatoes, and sliced peppers. Add some pita bread, cut into triangles, for scooping.

    Top tip:

    Let little ones help arrange the veggies around the hummus - it’s a great way to get them interested in trying new things!
