This is an adapted version from Lee Holmes’ “Supercharged Foods” book, and I love it! And not just for those times that my liver needs a little cleansing!
This is a terrific dip that keeps well in the fridge for a good couple of days … it’s great in a sandwich or on top of open sandwiches, but also delicious used as a topping for chicken or beef dishes (like baked chicken schnitzel or beef tacos). It goes beautifully with sour cream and sweet chilli sauce for Mexican style dishes … so use your imagination and go wild!
