Beet Hummus
I know beet hummus may not sound like it would taste very good. However, when I tried the hummus I couldn't taste the beet anymore and it had the most beautiful purply pink color. I could eat it with carrots and just enjoy it on a wrap or piece of toast. You seriously can't taste the beet and I can't stress this enough because I know this is what worries most people with these kinds of recipes. Beets are just packed with great nutritional benefits so I seriously recommend this recipe. Store in the refrigerator.
Gluten-Free Pita Flatbread
Soft and chewy pita bread made with gluten-free flour. Thicker than a tortilla. Slice the tops to fill them with vegetables and even hot grilled meats, cheeses, meatballs, or falafel. These will hold up to the challenge. They double as thick wraps for shawarma, gyros, or as a flatbread for your meal.
Sheet Pan Red Flannel Hash
Red flannel hash meets some "hippie" flavors in this quick sheet pan roasted hash. Top with eggs to make it an extra hearty meal.
