Greek Avocado Dip


I just held another Food Mood Weight Loss presentation and I can't believe we had such a packed house again! You all are so wonderful! One question I had was, how do you get potassium if I don't recommend bananas or potatoes?

Well, dried herbs have WAY more potassium without any of the sugar/starch. And in second place is the avocado!

My top choices for potassium are:
#1: Dried Herbs: Dried Chervil, Parsley, Basil, Dill, Tarragon, Ground Turmeric, Saffron, and Oregano!

 #2: Avocados

 #3: Paprika and Red Chili Powder

 #4: Cocoa Powder and Chocolate Dark chocolate (ChocoPerfection dark chocolate!)

 #5: Nuts: Almonds, Hazelnuts, Pine nuts, Coconuts and Walnuts.

 #6: Seeds (Pumpkin, Squash, Sunflower, and Flax)

 #7: Fish (Pompano, Salmon, Halibut, Tuna)

So try this recipe for a ton of potassium! More tips like this and potassium filled recipes can be found in my cookbooks! Thank you all for your love and support!



I brought this dip to a large company meeting and it was a total hit. They loved it served with my healthy "CHEEZ ITS." I hope you all enjoy it...low carbs, low calories, and pure and real food!
