This recipe has been tried and tested. The options to tweak it go on forever. Add in a handful of fresh herbs, swap out the lemon, for lime. But personally, I feel it nice to start with a classic to get the concept smooth, then begin getting creative.
The perfect dip to have in the fridge to satiate midday hunger with a few carrot sticks or whole grain pita bread; a wonderful appetizer, paired with crackers or crisp veg for guests; and a nice spread for wraps and sandwiches.
