Earth Balance Spreads - Made Just Right

We found The Healthy Voyager after she made this video about the new Earth Balance® Coconut Spread and MindfulMayo™ Dressing and Sandwich Spread.

The Healthy Voyager has a ton of great stuff on her site, from fitness, travel and wellness tips to book reviews, recipes and products. Make sure you take a look!
Today we are sharing her recipe for Seven-Layer Dip that is vegan and gluten-free (and also soy-free, depending on what ingredients you use). This is a terrific dish for summer, one that everyone will enjoy and you can easily bring it to a potluck or gathering.
