While I was shopping my grocery this month, I happened to check the labels of the few ready made sauces and was horrified reading the ingredients which sounded like chemicals more than food. While processed food is so much in our diet , I thought of making some spreads to help all of us try making it home. Now as much as it sounds lengthly, these dips and spreads are quite easy to do.

Infact the Red Pepper spread too is another quick fix recipe which would only make you keep trying it more every day and the fresh peppers in the season give the perfect kick needed in this.
