Ok people. This dip clearly is a game changer. I made this for the last game this Sunday. And see what happened.
The game went from 19 – 7 with seahawks playing miserably to 22- 28 in the last 5 minutes of the game. yep. Game changer I say.
This dip has layers of shredded carrot or other veggie of choice, Creamy peanut sauce, cilantro and mint, salsa tossed with asian hot sauce, sprouts, and peanuts. (peanuts missing in the pictures – I had to move the dip from photo location to table quickly :). Use Almond Butter to make it Peanut-free.
Add other goodies like cucumbers, crisp noodles and what not. I use home sprouted mung beans, use any sprouts of choice.
And this dip does not go to waste. Use the leftover to toss in some crisped up tofu or veggies for lunch. Or use as salad dressing!

Where are the layers you say, they are there somewhere. Make it look prettier with more defined layers in a smaller and tall trifle bowl kind of thing. Eventually, it will become all mixed up.

Yums to the yums
Tag me #veganricha on Instagram if you make any of the super bowl spread!
This game year has been full of twists and turns. Anyone following the deflategate.
