Beet Chips
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Using a mandolin, slice the beets into 1/16th inch thick slices and add the sliced beets to a wide bowl and sprinkle with salt. Let the beets sit for 10 minutes to release any moisture.
Drain the beets and use a paper towel to blot excess moisture.
Season the beets and drizzle with olive oil, cumin, garlic powder and pepper and mix to combine.
Spread the sliced beets onto a parchment lined baking sheet in an even layer and bake for 30-35 minutes until the edges are crisp.
Make the Labneh Dip

- If using different color beets, keep the beets separate so the red doesn't stain the yellow beets.
- Keep the beet greens and use the same way you would with spinach or kale.
- The thinner the slices are, the crispier the beets will be.
