    This sounds really good, but I didn’t see how many servings were in this recipe. Did it also mention the amount of fiber? From my calculations, a serving would equal 3 Weight Watchers points.

    Can I eat whole grain pita bread with this dip? I know, I know, watch the carbs… But it’s a dip… *whine* lol

    Yes, you can just make sure you measure out a serving. It’s very easy to forget or not pay attention to how much you are eating. Also, you can use this as dip for veggies!
