Turmeric Dip With Beet Chips

 

Beet Chips with Turmeric Dip

Here's a lighter, more colorful take on the usual chips and dip. Beet chips crisp up in a flash in the microwave. Keep close watch on them to make sure they don't scorch.

Serves 8 (serving size: about 1/4 cup chips and 2 tbsp. dip)

Ingredients:
3 medium beets, peeled and sliced to 1/16-in. thickness on a mandoline

1 cup plain whole-milk Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon onion powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper

Directions:

Line a large microwave-safe plate with paper towels. Working in batches, spread beet slices on towel-lined plate; microwave at high for 3 minutes or until crisp.

Combine yogurt and remaining ingredients; stir well. Serve dip with beet chips.
