Directions

  1. Roast the beets: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wrap the beets in foil and roast for 45–60 minutes, until tender. Let cool, then peel and slice into wedges or cubes.
  2. Make the whipped feta: In a food processor, combine the vegan yogurt, vegan feta cheese, olive oil, salt, and white pepper. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
  3. Spread the base: Transfer the whipped feta to a serving plate or shallow bowl, spreading it into an even layer with the back of a spoon.
  4. Top with beets: Arrange the roasted beets on top of the whipped feta.
  5. Garnish: Sprinkle generously with chopped pistachios and pink peppercorns. Drizzle with vegan honey or maple syrup.
  6. Serve: Serve immediately with crusty bread, crackers, or fresh veggies for dipping. Enjoy!

Pro Tips

  • Roast ahead: Roast the beets a day in advance and store them in the fridge for even easier assembly.
  • Get it smooth: For the creamiest texture, make sure your food processor is running long enough to fully break down the feta.
  • Customize the crunch: Swap pistachios for walnuts, pecans, or pine nuts depending on what you have on hand.
  • Make it a meal: Serve alongside a fresh green salad for a light lunch or dinner.
  • Drizzle last: Add the maple syrup or vegan honey just before serving to keep the colors vibrant.
