I was lucky enough to find some great organic strawberries at the store and decided I needed to buy them. I had some as a snack, I added some to yogurt, and I used some in a dip. My canvas was a strawberry, I found out how well the fruit can multi-task!
To create the dip, I added one pouch of Energy Fruits Gutzy Apple, Strawberry, Kiwi, and Kale to a glass pyrex container. I added 1 TBSP of organic chia seeds and 2 diced strawberries to the Gutzy. I stirred and let rest in the refrigerator overnight.
The next day I cut 6-8 large strawberries into slices and baked them in an over preheated to 350. The strawberries do not lose their shape, but they do dry out a bit.
To serve, add the sliced strawberries to the plate as well as the dip. Use the strawberries to "scoop" up the dip. You can also use toasted gluten free bread or rice cakes as well.
NOTE: You can increase the chia seeds to create a dip of a thicker consistency. I would add 2 TBSP next time for fruit dipping. If I was just using bread or rice cakes, 1 works well.
