This Orange Beet Dip is a light healthy recipe that’s festive enough for the holidays.

The Holiday Season is a tough time to keep things in check when it comes to eating. There are so many tempting appetizers at holiday parties, many of which are loaded with butter, cream and cheese. It’s easy to over indulge during the holiday season, with the thought of going on a diet in the new year.

But you can have your cake and eat it too! There are plenty of eye-popping healthy appetizers that are full of flavor, just lighter, so you can enjoy yourself this holiday season without overindulging. This Orange Beet Dip is a quick and healthy appetizer that would be perfect for serving during the holiday season. 

Eating lighter and in moderation is the key during the holiday season. For more appetizer ideas, check out my Healthy Appetizer Recipes.

Orange Beet Dip

This dip is like eating an orange beet salad in one bite.  You can find precooked baby beets in the fresh produce section.

 

Printable Recipe
8 ounces cooked baby beets (about 3 beets)
3 teaspoons minced fresh mint
zest from one clementine
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
endive leaves
Place beets, mint, zest and rice vinegar in a food processor and process until smooth.  Serve with endive leaves.

I hope you try some of these healthy appetizer recipes this holiday season. Please share your favorite healthy holiday appetizer ideas or recipes by leaving a comment, or linking them below.
