Sensational healthy tapas suggestions

Homemade hummus is not just a protein and fibre-packed dip for snacks but also spread for slices of bread and crackers. Guacamole is that classic Mexican avocado dip that’s zesty and spicy which goes incredibly on your toast for breakfast with an egg too if you store it correctly by placing it in the fridge with the plastic pressed down on top.
