This bean dip is packed with fiber, calcium, protein, iron and vitamins A and C. The flavor of the spinach is masked by the salsa and cumin, so it a great way to add nutrition to a delicious snack.

Peel and cut the jicama in half. Place halves cut sides down, and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Combine jicama, oranges, cucumbers, radishes, and juice in a bowl. Let stand 30 minutes. Add the ground chile and salt, and toss well. Sprinkle with cilantro.

Roasted red peppers give this spread smoky sweetness. You can substitute 1 1/2 cups bottled roasted red bell peppers. Serve with toasted bagel chips or raw vegetables.
Instead of sesame tahini, this hummus recipe uses walnuts and flax seed, which are rich in important Omega-3 fatty acids. The result is milder-tasting than traditional hummus, but equally delicious. An added bonus: People following the Eat to Live nutritional program can eat this without guilt!
This one is my personal favorite–I didn’t think it would be that great, but I love it and make it all the time now!
Puree everything except the optional extra scallions and tomatoes. Then mix in those optional extras, if using. Done!

Just wanted to share a recipe I made up to take the place of regular spinach dip. It really is good. You’ll never even know it is healthy!
This lighter, cooler variation of the spring roll is not fried so there is not a lot of added fat. This is an Vietnamese recipe, so the only specialty item you will need are rice flour wrappers rolls (as opposed to spring roll or wonton wrappers), found in Asian supermarkets, gourmet groceries and the Internet.
(This is one of my favorites. It’s a recipe I adapted from one of the many cookbooks I own.)
Serving Suggestions: I like to make salsa a couple of hours ahead so that it has time for the ingredients to meld. I also like to serve it very cold with warm, toasted, tortilla points. The contrast is great!
