For an easy, tasty, nutrient filled alternative to high fat dips, give this one a try. Not only does it deliver on flavor, but you get a double dose of veggies with the beans and salsa as well as double protein from the Greek yogurt and the beans. And if you use bean chips and/or veggies for dippers you are an A-lister when it comes to eating well.
