Healthy, Clean Eating Recipes
From
my earliest memories, family gatherings included this incredible dip...
This recipe is a family tradition and
a mainstay of my childhood. Oddly, it was a family tradition in both my Mother's
side (Jewish) and my Father's side (Armenian)! With a minor tweak or two, the
recipe is now clean. Serve this with Potato Chips, sliced raw turnips, carrots,
celery, and cauliflower (my favorite dipping veggie).
