County Fair Foods provided some tasty dips for our STRIVE 2 Survive group last night. These were served with whole grain crackers and baked or whole grain tortilla chips.

 

Mock Tuna Salad (picture above)

1 can (19 oz) garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained and mashed

2 Tbsp mayo (choose light or FF)

2 tsp spicy brown mustard

1 Tbsp sweet pickle relish

2 green onions, chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

Mix well in a medium bowl.

 

Asparagus Guacamole

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

24 spears of fresh asparagus, trimmed and coarsely chopped

1/2 c. salsa

1 Tbsp chopped cilantro

2 cloves garlic

4 green onions sliced

Place the asparagus in a pot with enough water to cover. Bring to boil and cook 5 minutes, until tender and firm. Drain and rinse with cold water. Place the asparagus, salsa, cilantro, garlic, and green onions in a food processor or blender, and process to desired consistency. Refrigerate 1 hour or until chilled before serving.

Enjoy!
