Almond Anchovy Dip
There are two classic Mediterranean flavors that George just couldn’t do without. He adores almonds, especially the ones we grow and anchovies, that incredibly heart-healthy ingredient that gives any salad, dressing or dip a hint of the salty sea brine of the beach. If you haven’t embraced anchovies yet, give it a try in this easy picnic-perfect dip.

1 cup blanched almonds
2 ounces anchovy fillets (approximately 20 fillets)
