    You can check out the rest of the healthy low fat dips in the list below.

    All of these 4 favourite dip recipes were ones I altered and put together based on the previous full fat dip recipes I used to make.

    I had to stop eating those full fat dips when I was looking to loose weight and get into shape at the beginning of my journey into the 80/20 lifestyle.

    I hope you've enjoyed these dips and if you get a chance to make some, or even one of them, I'd love to hear what you think by commenting below!

    Ingredients

    • 2 large red bell peppers
    • Low fat cooking spray

    • Once the onion mixture has cooked place it in a food processor bowl to cool.
    • Once the peppers have cooled enough to handle you will need to de-seed and peel them, then cut them up into smaller pieces.
    • Add the pepper pieces, chickpeas, garlic, red chill, and 1 tbsp. sweet chilli sauce and lemon zest to the onion mixture in the food processor bowl and blitz the mixture until as smooth as possible. Check and season with salt and pepper and add more sweet chilli sauce if required.
