One of my goals for this blog is to provide recipes for moms, like myself, that are trying to treat their difficult child's behavior with diet and nutrition. Whether your child responds to a gluten-free, dairy-free or Feingold diet, (see Why We Chose the Feingold Diet) one thing is certain: your child needs a real-food diet. Now, let me just say up front that I am not an expert on health and nutrition. I am a mom who loves to cook and serve my family delicious, made-from-scratch, real-food meals. When we decided to follow the Feingold Diet, (no artificial flavors, colorings and some preservatives) it became my passion to search for "knock-off" recipes for some of our family's favorite foods. Each time I post a family favorite recipe, I will note whether the recipe is Feingold approved (FG1 or FG2), gluten-free or dairy-free.
I really, really like this dip. It is super easy and super versatile! It is my go-to veggie dip, but it is also really good with pretzels and beer bread. Another way to use it is as a sandwich spread. It only takes 5 minutes to throw together, but the flavor is best if made 12-24 hours in advance. The original recipe came from Country Cooking, but it was not Feingold acceptable. I made my own changes and we think it is fabulous! I hope you enjoy!
We'll start off with one of our all time favorites!
