Roasted Beet Dip with Golden Beet Chips

The awesome colour of beets shine through in this easy and tasty dip. Serve it up with vegetable, Golden Beet or tortilla chips for added crunch. Spread it on your sandwiches for extra fibre and big flavour. If it's too much beet-y goodness for one recipe, these chips can be made separately to serve with hummus!
