4 easy dips

That are also delicious as breakfast

We are quite fans of spreads at the editorial office. Hummus, Philadelphia with garden herbs, sandwich spread, baba ganoush, vegetable spreads and so on. So we usually kill that four o'clock dip quite healthily. But as soon as someone craves something sweet, a sprint is made to the gas station and the bars chocolate and bags of candy appear on the table. That's why I have something new for you today. Four sweet spreads that are not only delicious as breakfast but also go very well for dipping your apple.
