I’ve always been a great mayo and mustard sauce fan through school years and loved my junk food escapades. Lately though I began to grow health conscious and started to choose healthier options. I do like to opt for healthy, nutritious and vegetarian options especially when eating outside. I have put together a list of vegan dips and ask each one of you to add more to the list so that all of us can expand our choices and try the mix of various flavors. You can use these on sandwiches, warm pitas, rolls and nachos. So here it is, for dipping your munchies!
