I like Gorgonzola cheese – and found this dip recipe in a Health Magazine. I read the ingredients and thought to myself that I should really try making a dip like this one. It is delicious with fresh bell peppers, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, celery or carrot sticks. The beauty is: only 130 calories per 1/4 cup serving. You could easily use fresh herbs to this dip instead of dried. This dip is a winner in my book.
