Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 medium tomato
  • 4 tablespoons (60 g / 2.12 oz) vegan cream cheese
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml / 1 fl oz) plant-based milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon (1 g / 0.04 oz) dried parsley flakes
  • 12 whole -grain pretzel sticks, for serving
  • For a flavor boost, use fresh parsley instead of dried, and add a clove of finely minced garlic or a sprinkle of onion powder.
  • This dip is also delicious with other dippers like carrot sticks, cucumber slices, bell pepper strips, or whole-grain crackers.
  • If making ahead, store the dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. You may need to give it a good stir before serving.
  • For a richer flavor, try using a chive & onion or garlic & herb flavored vegan cream cheese as your base.

Method
 

  1. Finely chop the tomato, removing any excess seeds if you prefer.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the vegan cream cheese, chopped tomato, plant-based milk, and dried parsley flakes.
  3. Stir everything together with a fork or spatula until well combined.
  4. For an ultra-smooth consistency, transfer the mixture to a small blender or food processor and purée until creamy.
  5. Serve immediately with whole-grain pretzel sticks for dipping.
