Ingredients

1/2 cup beetroot, diced

1 cup pumpkin, diced

1 tsp olive oil

Changing Habits Seaweed Salt to taste

Changing Habits Pepper to taste

Quinoa crust

2 cups cooked white quinoa

1 egg

1/2 cup grated parmesan

1 tsp olive oil (if greasing pan rather than using baking paper)

Filling

3 eggs

1/4 Spanish onion, diced

1 cup spinach leaves, chopped roughly

1 small handful basil leaves, chopped roughly

6 cherry tomatoes, cut in half

100 g goats cheese

Garnish

4 tbsp pepitas, roasted

Extra basil leaves

Directions

Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius.

Toss the diced beetroot and pumpkin in olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place on a baking tray and roast for 30 minutes. Set aside to cool.

Quinoa Crust

Once the quinoa has completely cooled, transfer into a bowl and add the grated parmesan and egg.

Line a tin with baking paper (or grease with oil or melted butter) and press the quinoa mixture evenly and firmly into the base and side of the tin to form a thick crust. Bake for approximately 15 minutes or until slightly golden. Set aside to cool.

Filling

Place the roasted pumpkin and beetroot in a bowl and add the rest of the filling ingredients, apart from the goats cheese, and mix well. Finally, add the goats cheese.

Pour the filling mixture into the cooled base and bake for approximately 30 minutes or until the mixture is firm. Add the pepitas into the oven for the final 10 minutes.

Garnish with the roasted pepitas and basil leaves and slice to serve.

A tasty take on the classic Mediterranean dip, infused with a mix of aromatic spices that enhance its creamy texture and rich flavour. This spiced hummus pairs beautifully with crunchy veggie sticks, seedy crackers, or a slice of sourdough toast. Quick and simple to prepare, it also keeps well in the fridge for up to a week!
