Introduction

Basil and lime can be modified to taste. We like the tart finish with this combination, but you may like a little less. Great spread for whole wheat wraps or veggie dip. Can use in place of mayo for twist on tuna salad. Basil and lime can be modified to taste. We like the tart finish with this combination, but you may like a little less.
