Plant-based starter pack

If there ever was a starter pack for an aspiring vegan it would consist of hummus, carrots, and tortilla chips. While obviously a fan of the classics….it’s 2020 we’ve got options now. Below are easy, breezy, beautiful dips and spreads to start you on your journey.

The name says it all with the first recommendation. Start with the original Bitchin’ Sauce and work your way through the tangy and satisfying dips.

Although traditionally used for pasta rather than as a dip, I had to include a local NY favorite by Gotham Greens in the roundup. The vegan pesto is a great summer addition to a refreshing plant-based diet.

A confusing contender in the dairy-free category, Majestic Garlic dips are so creamy you might find yourself double and triple checking the label for milk additives.

Roots is not your average hummus. The self proclaimed “microbrew of hummus” suppliers offers cold pressed variations on classic hummus flavors in addition to unique flavors like Mango Sriracha.

Come for the original vegan mayo and stay for the plant-based chipotle with Sir Kensington's. Pro tip: cut up some sweet potato wedges, pop them in the oven and slather them in this sauce.
