you really can&#8217;t go wrong. \u00a0It&#8217;s not just perfect in the middle of the day. \u00a0It&#8217;s also a great appetizer or accompaniment \u00a0to a meal. \u00a0It&#8217;s such a healthful thing to put on your table, and it&#8217;s an incredibly easy to prepare. \u00a0Since my days have been especially hectic lately, and I haven&#8217;t had a lot of time to cook, this has been a great solution. \u00a0The other night my husband picked up some sliced ham on the way back from work and I took out all of the leftover fresh vegetables from the week. \u00a0I had buttermilk in the house, which makes a great base for dip. \u00a0The flavor in this dip is great, but if you like a dip that&#8217;s thick you should add a little sour cream. \u00a0And go easy on the garlic. \u00a0A little went a very long way.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<div id=\"zlrecipe-container-178\" class=\"zlrecipe-container-border\" >\n<div id=\"zlrecipe-container\" class=\"serif zlrecipe\">\n  <div class=\"recipeRating\"><div id=\"post-ratings-26280\" class=\"post-ratings\" data-nonce=\"ad1a68a549\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_26280_1\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/asweetlife.org\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/asweetlife_stars\/rating_off.gif\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(26280, 1, '');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(0, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer;
