Three Super Simple Dips
I often hear people saying they can eat healthy no problem except it all goes out the window when entertaining or having a few drinks. I mean what do you put on the platter when you stop eating from packets and processed foods?
Get a few different meats, some cheeses (if you are dairy tolerant), then throw together a couple of these easy peasy dips with my Supercharged Seed Crackers and viola!
Platter food for friends, and you didn't have to compromise on eating well.
