Healthy Mackerel Dip

Healthy Mackerel Dip

This week I wanted to share with you one of the easiest dips I know. This dip is a fantastic way of increasing your oily fish (omega 3) intake which is great for heart health, and it really is super versatile.

 

I have eaten this mackerel dip as a snack with oatcakes, as a starter with slices of pitta bread, and with a roasted chickpea salad and crackers for a balanced lunch. I really do love this dip and it can keep in the fridge for 1-2 days after making (just cover and check the use-by dates of your yoghurt/fish first!).
