This is an amazing Jewel-toned dip, so pretty. I made it this weekend.... just FAB! I love avocados and pomegranates! The chips are fun to make and they are quite tasty. Enjoy !!!


  • Crunchy CHIPS!

  • 1 teaspoon paprika

To prepare chips, combine paprika, cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt, sugar, garlic powder, and onion powder in a small bowl.

Sprinkle paprika mixture evenly over wedges. Bake an additional 2 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from oven; cool completely.
