Serves 4 (low iodine)
This delicious dip is gluten free, dairy free, vegan, low fat and low iodine, so everyone can have their dip and eat it. I remember this as one of the edible highlights of the low iodine diet and when it comes to that eating regime, there are not many highlights, let me tell you.
Serve this up with your favourite chips, crackers and for a low iodine and low fat option, just add crudites!
