This is an easy/peasy dip to put together, and goes great with a small party where you might be serving light refreshments, like wine and crackers. Or, just as an additional starter on the sideboard for a bit meal. Serve with crackers, veggies, or a combination of both. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.
