Salsa, Dip & Spread Recipes

Looking to spice things up when your fridge is bare? Don’t fret – this complex, flavorful salsa is concocted exclusively from canned and dried ingredients, letting you enjoy freshly-made salsa, even without “fresh” ingredients. 

Avocados have enjoyed a huge surge in popularity in the last decade. One bite of this heavenly guac and you’ll understand why!

Chips, meet your dip. Fresh salsa comes together in a snap with this super easy and tasty mix of tomato, pepper, onion, and garlic.

Skip the store-bought and pre-made salsa, and make your own homemade version. This recipe calls for canned tomatoes, which offer an added nutrition bonus! When tomatoes are heated during processing or canning, the powerful antioxidant, lycopene, becomes more bioavailable to our bodies, offering potentially more cancer protection and anti-inflammatory benefits.

This delicious dip uses white beans and cashews in place of traditional chickpeas to create a smooth and mellow hummus that's sure to satisfy.  

Say “hello” to your new favorite sauce! The Spinach Avocado Pesto is everything you love about the classic pesto with a creamy and heart-healthy twist. Best of all, it's quick and easy to make! To prepare the perfect pesto, you need basil, garlic, Parmesan cheese, and a really good olive oil. But you can take it to the next level by adding smooth avocado, which works wonders for your heart and brain, and spinach for a heavy dose of nutrients. Plus, it’s incredibly versatile! Toss the pesto with whole wheat or brown rice pasta, spread it on sandwiches, or use it to make delicious salad dressings and dips.

Savory and garlicky, this simple hummus is a tasty, protein-packed appetizer that's perfect for any gathering. Enjoy it as a dip for a medley of fresh veggies and pita chips or as a spread for your favorite wraps and sandwiches!

As delicious as vegetables are on their own, something transformative and magical happens when fresh veggies and dip come together. We all know that dips can pack a caloric and fat punch to your diet, faster than you can finish a serving of celery and carrots. Dips with yogurt as a base retain all the texture and flavor of sour cream-based dips, but are lower in fat, higher in protein, and have the added benefit of gut-healthy probiotics. This dip is a crunchy, creamy, and dreamy way to begin a soirée.

Why pick between guacamole and hummus when you can have them both in one flavor-packed dip? Score big with a rich and creamy party dip that's also good for you! Made with buttery smooth avocado and topped with crunchy chickpeas, the Avocado Hummus will be your go-to snack!

Skip the jarred stuff and get the party started with fresh homemade salsa that brings zest to any fiesta!

Smooth and rich, this toasty, lightly sweet pistachiobutter transforms even the most humble toast and oats into a luxurious treat.

This dreamy and creamy dip will come together in no time and is a perfectly sweet addition to your Valentine’s Day!
