Healthy Dips


By Cooking for Oscar (Visit website)



I've been trying to eat a bit healthier, so I've been making dips to have as snacks with vegetables as dippers.  I've also been trying to get Oscar interested in dips, so far no luck there, but that just leaves more for me!

The sweet potato and cashew dip is from My Green Australia, but I changed the quantities around a bit.  The Cucumber and Chickpea Dip is from all recipes.

Cucumber and Chickpea Dip (Moderate Salicylate, Low Amines, Low Glutamates)

4 cloves garlic, peeled1/4 tspn citric acid1 tspn sunflower oil400g can chickpeas, rinsed and drained1 cucumber, peeled and coarsely choppedsalt to taste

Cucumber and Chickpea Dip

Place the garlic, citric acid and oil into a blender or food processor.  Blend until the garlic is finely minced.Add the chickpeas and cucumber, puree until smooth then season with salt to taste and blend to mix.Pour into a serving dish and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours to allow the flavours to blend.
