One or my LiveWell Consultants developed this Gluten Free and Low G.I. Mexican recipe for a special friend and fellow LiveWell Consultant’s birthday. I just had to share it so you can enjoy it guilt free as well. This Dip was the hit of the party ! Try it with your guests. You don’t even have to tell them that it is good for them!
