It’s Coeliac Awareness Week & I’ve teamed up with Chippa to create my very own gluten free BBQ sauce, vegan chipotle mayo & avocado dip. Together, these are the perfect selection of dips for everyone to enjoy this summer, alongside the rest of your gluten free grub!
Personally, I don’t believe a summer spread is ever complete without a selection of DIPS! Whether it’s gluten free chicken dippers, tortilla chips or my very own loaded sweet potato jackets; I need a gluten free bbq sauce, vegan chipotle mayo or an avocado dip to smother my food in! All too often, we Brits are guilty of turning to the ketchup way too quickly (don’t deny it!) But with a little ingenuity, you can easily use those common table sauces to create something of a restaurant standard that’s totally free from friendly.
Coeliac Awareness Week always comes at the time of year where I am really getting into the swing of summer & it seemed the perfect opportunity to make my own selection of dips! Finding free from dips that are a little more adventurous are often so hard to come by. I was amazed that by simply making two small additions to Chippa’s gluten free ketchup and gluten free Worcester sauce, I had created a wonderful, smoky bbq sauce that’s 100% gluten free.
This inspired me to recreate more of my favourite dips that me and Mark always miss out out on. With a few little twists on Chippa’s egg-free and dairy-free May-O, it was criminally easy to recreate some of our favourite burger-joint style mayos, but now totally egg-free and suitable for vegans. None of these recipes contain more than 5 ingredients (4 if you don’t count salt and pepper!) and they’ll take you a whole lot less than 5 minutes to create. So go on, give them a try!
