Pan-roasted corn and peppers dip

roasted corn and peppers dip

Time flies and we are already into the second week of the new year! It has been a hectic and tiring December and the terrible me could not find any time to settle down to blog after the new blog layout was done. Hopefully now that things at home and at work are more settled, I can find more time to blog! For a change, I thought I’d share a recipe for my favourite dip today. I seldom make dips; I rarely have an occasion for them. My cell group had a post Christmas before New Year gathering though, and I finally found an opportunity to make my favourite dip. The first time I made this was for an office gathering and it received great reviews. This time, people loved it too, so it’s definitely a keeper.
