Family, Friend, Work Parties…
We love + dread them at the same time. On one hand, we are excited to get the chance to entice others with our vegan-friendly dishes but dread the pressure of living up to those judgements.
If you’re thumbing through your cookbook or scrolling on Pinterest to find a crowd-worthy appetizer, look no further. This is a 5 minute recipe that will not disappoint no matter which specialty diet is followed.
And let’s be honest…who doesn’t love pizza? This fully plant-based dip’s main ingredient is chick peas which are a rich source of vitamins, minerals and fiber. Secondly, nutritional yeast, is a great source of B12.
So while everyone is raving over your healthy pizza dip, you can sit back, relax and enjoy your win!
