DIP: 2 Oldies but Goodies!

When I was younger, about 20 years old, my friend’s mom use to make us this dip that we use to destroy when we’d get back to his house from a night on the town.  She use to get so angry at us, but it was amazing when you were drunk, as well as sober.

Over the years I never knew what it was in this magical drunken dip, all I knew is that it was delicious.  I’ve come to realize that it was a very simple mixture of two oldies, but goodies; hummus and tzatziki… Who woulda thought?  Two dips I’ve loved for years seperately to come together into one amazing mixture…

After realizing (and hoping I was right) tonight in the grocery store, I decided to come home tonight and give it a try.

This is what I mixed up:

  • 2 tbsp Compliments Roasted Garlic Hummus Chick Pea Spread (60 cals, 3g fat, 5g carbs, 2g protein)
  • 2 tbsp Compliments Tzatziki Yogurt & Cucumber Dip (45 cals, 3.5g fat, 2g carbs, 1g protein)
  • 1 tbsp Omega Crunch Shelled Flax Seed – Roasted Garlic Flavour (20 cals, 2g fat, 1g carbs, 1g protein)

All you have to do is scoop it into a dish, mix it together and voila, a wicked dip mix.  Grab a few whole wheat pita’s and you’re set.
