- Nutrition Note:We love dips made from plants that you can use to dip more plants into! Beets are packed with vitamins A and C, fiber, and antioxidants, supporting heart health and reducing inflammation. Dates add natural sweetness along with fiber, potassium, and magnesium, supporting gut health. Sesame seeds provide healthy fats, plant protein, and essential minerals like calcium and iron. Chickpeas contribute additional protein, fiber, and folate, enhancing overall nutrition.
