January’s BrightRx features savory, flavorful recipes to start your new year with a kick and warm up your winter days. The talented Mackenzie Smith adapted this vibrant Horseradish & Beet Yogurt Dip recipe from Food52.
This dip is equally delicious as it is visually impressive, with lots of bold, acidic flavor. It is inspired by the flavors of ćwikła, a zesty Polish relish made from grated beets and horseradish. Mackenzie put a twist on the recipe with the addition of LUCID, adding a bright, luxurious touch. The neon pink dip appropriately celebrates the joyful spirit of the holiday season.
