AIP Cauliflower Dip

This versatile, tasty dip will add some flavor to your veggies without compromising the healing effects of your AIP diet.

Going AIP can be a huge change. From birthday parties to getting together to watch football on the weekend, food is often a central part of social gatherings. It’s easy to miss your favorite meals and snacks, but it’s exciting to find new favorites too.

This dip has all the craveability of your traditional store-bought (and likely inflammatory) dips. For that reason, make sure you keep yourself from going overboard if you decide to make a larger portion.

Benefits of Garlic

Part of what gives this AIP cauliflower dip its wonderful flavor is the roasted garlic. In addition to its all-star status as a flavor-enhancer, it’s also really good for you. Here’s why:

• It’s rich in manganese, Vitamin C, and Vitamin B6
• It’s low in calories
• It contains antioxidants
• It helps prevent colds

It’s also easy to incorporate garlic into your cooking. In addition to this cauliflower dip, garlic enhances beef, chicken, and nearly all of your AIP-approved vegetables.

Make sure you roast the garlic for this recipe. It may be tempting to skip it, but I’ve always found the extra step to be more than worth the effort.

Veggies to Dip

I use radishes and cucumber sticks in this example, but feel free to get creative! There are plenty of other options to play with.

• Broccoli
• Asparagus
• Carrots
• Sweet potato fries
• As a spread on lettuce wraps
