Dip for artichokes

Dip for artichokes

Creamy sour cream blended with balsamic vinegar,garlic,and thyme. So simple and delicous!

I’ve been wanting to try new and strange different veggies and produce and artichokes were one of them! Although I got fresh artichokes I also got canned which is what I used because steaming an artichoke was not quick enough and I was hungry!

Canned artichoke is delicous,but I would like to try steamed fresh artichoke to taste the difference between the two.

Make it dairy free

Use dairy free yogurt or sour cream although I dont know how it will taste. If you do use dairy free yogurt or sour cream in this recipe please tell me how it turned out in the comments below!

Raspberry ginger refreshment

Raspberry ginger refreshment

Fresh raspberries,grated ginger,lemon,honey,and mint.

I was very thirsty one afternoon and I wanted something a little sweet but not lemonade… and ginger was the first thing that popped into my mind! Ginger is not only delicous,but full of health benefits!

raspberry ginger refreshment

Change up the fruit

If you dont fancy raspberries that much feel free to use any other kind of fruit you like! Mango sounds delicious to me. If you do change up the fruit please tell me how it turned out?!

If you let the drink sit for a little after blending you will start to see the foam separate from the juices. This is natural and can be fixed by just stirring the drink a bit.
