You can of course make this with large pumpkins, but I COULDN’T resist these adorable Munchkin Pumpkins when I saw them in Tesco! They make the ideal container for the sauce, and they’ve got a beautiful flavour…they’re so cute!

This year, I’m determined to stay on plan this Halloween (saving my syns for a few drinks!) and so I’ve been coming up with some recipes to help with that. I made some delicious Syn Free Halloween Stuffed Peppers, which I’m definitely making to help me stay on track, and this dip is the ideal accompaniment! Very quick to make, with no actual cooking (just a little microwaving), this dip is perfect for that moment that you’re really dreading having to turn up to a party and eat all of the ‘beige food’! Simply bring along your delicious dip, and make sure to stand near the carrot sticks!

  • 2x Spring Onions, finely chopped (plus extra for garnish)
