    With New Years approaching fast and with many people spending time with their friends and family I thought I would share an easy dip recipe that tastes fantastic, can serve lots of people and is gluten-free!!

    This is such a popular dip where ever we go and after just one mouthful, people just hover around this dip. (ok...I am saying this  with my tongue in cheek... but ...I think this dip has 'magical powers' of getting people together 😉 )
