It’s also vegan and gluten free and packs a TON of protein. Let’s call this a healthy fruit dip. Plus, when compared to other desserts, this recipe is low in calories, carbs and fat!

If you have picky eaters to feed, this fruit dip is a great way to encourage your children to eat more fruit. Or even adults that may need a push.

Sweet hummus may not sound appetizing, but boy am I ever glad I made some anyways! This will definitely become a go to dessert option in my house. Or use this healthy dip for a light lunch, or after workout snack. Just gather your favourite fruits for dunking and enjoy.
