This delicious bean dip can be prepared and chilled ahead of time—to be ready whenever you feel a snack attack coming on! It's also great as a lunch box partner to sandwiches.
The unsweetened applesauce turns the texture creamy and a tad sweet; the bite of garlic keeps the dip compatible with your favorite chips. Perfect for lunch bags or boxes, use a Ziploc® brand container to make transporting the dip a cinch.
