Artichoke and Cheese Dip
Even people trying to adhere to a wheat- and dairy-free diet can enjoy this classic dip. Look for goat or sheep’s milk versions of your favorite hard cheese and a soy version of your cream cheese. When you pair the dip with gluten-free crackers or organic whole grain tortilla chips, you are off and running.
