Hello my Dearest Foodies,
I wasn't sure what I am going to make until I went to supermarket. I was looking around at all the yellow colors in produce section and got confused, lol. I am not used to do shopping by color, but by ingredients that I need for recipe I am planing to make. In this case however, I had to come up with a recipe that contains yellow fruits, veggies, or spices and that is a wide range.
Since this was a totally new experience for me, I could not make up my mind until I saw them! The GOLDEN BEETS saved me! In a spare of a moment, I made decision to go easy on myself and make something simple and the GOLDEN HUMUS is the result. I have made PINK HUMUS with red beets in the past, so why not golden. And let me tell you, it turned out delicious!!!
