This hearty and healthy dip can do no wrong! Packed with vitamins, protein and fresh herbs, this is a great go-to snack or dish to bring to get-togethers. Fresh herbs contain vitamins, minerals, as well as disease-protecting flavonoids. Cilantro in particular, is one of the highest sources of Vitamin K! Try having just one bite of this dip…
