This is super yummy, excellent gut food.
This dip is simply the leftovers from the beetroot chocolate cake I made earlier today. I personally prefer the dip to the cake!
Add natural yoghurt (around 2/3 beetroot to yoghurt), a squeeze of lemon, black pepper and a shake of turmeric. Stir through & enjoy. This made a good addition to the small bowl of pumpkin soup I had for lunch.
