Though with just 2 of us to eat it, we'd have to eat a lot of it so I often don't make dip!eatme_delicioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14657772782487330009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-3314913125313373962010-10-29T23:23:46.622+11:002010-10-29T23:23:46.622+11:00Thanks Carla - Hurrah for dips!

My favourite tofu dip is <a href="http://gggiraffe.blogspot.com/2008/03/pat-and-cat-hair.html" rel="nofollow">Finnish green bean paté</a><br /><br />Thanks Lorraine<br /><br />Thanks Katie - I've used peas in other dips with beans and that works well too<br /><br />Thanks Cakelaw - if only I had more sandwiches like thatJohanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-85715838547132098612010-10-29T15:22:20.294+11:002010-10-29T15:22:20.294+11:00That is one super-looking sandwich - yum!That is one super-looking sandwich - yum!Cakelawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17205068748520541380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-70405684154563074372010-10-28T17:09:42.575+11:002010-10-28T17:09:42.575+11:00What a brilliant idea!

I love potato sandwiches and I love potato and peas - never thought to combine the two!

Although I strongly suspect my favourite place in the flat would become in front of the fridge dip in one hand spoon in the other.

Love the vibrant green and the tofu and the nutritional yeast. Funny thing is that I hadn't eaten peas in years, then I moved out and discovered that Coles-brand frozen peas are the cheapest veggies out there. And so, now, I always have peas...Hannahhttp://wayfaringchocolate.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-13799154177722478312010-10-27T16:20:55.058+11:002010-10-27T16:20:55.058+11:00WHOA!!
