Muhammara is a tasty dish that originates in Syria. It is usually sweetened with pomegranate molasses, but this more savory version has no added sugar or sweeteners and is great for a Candida diet plan.
You can serve this dip with some sliced vegetables, or a gluten-free cracker like my sesame cauliflower rounds. The combination of the walnuts, cayenne and cumin give it a delicious rounded flavor that is probably unlike any dish you’ve tried before. Let me know what you think!
