Low fat dill dip

Quick Dill Dip - this recipe sounds a lot like a dip my husband and I really like that we have had at the Atlanta Bread Company restaurants. We like it so much that we have bought take-home containers of it for about 4 dollars for an itty-bitty little container!! I can't wait to try this one. We spread this on slices of French or Italian bread, instead of on crackers.


Prep: 5 min - Total: 3 hr 5 min

1 cup light mayonnaise
1 container (16 oz.) Fat Free Sour
Cream
1 Tbsp. dill weed
1 Tbsp. dried minced onion
1 Tbsp. parsley flakes

MIX all ingredients; cover. Refrigerate several hours or overnight.

SERVE with assorted Crackers or vegetable dippers.

Makes 24 (2-Tbsp.) servings

Make-Ahead: Dip can be made a day in advance. Most vegetables can be cut
up a day in advance as well. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Low Fat Brownie Recipe

Lowfat Brownie recipe

Low Fat Brownie Recipe (invented by Jan Pepe of MakingScrapbooks.com and http://www.makingscrapbooks.typepad.com)
Is that cool or what? ~ Darla

• Betty Crocker brownie mix - the one with the hershey's syrup packet in the box
• Replace the eggs by doubling the # and using only the whites
• Replace the oil with applesauce
• Use the designated amount of water (I tend to put in just a little extra)

That's it! Play around with it. This is the consistency I like. You could play with the amount of egg whites and applesauce to get the texture of brownie you like. I love them fresh out of the oven or warmed in the microwave (once they've cooled). Put a scoop of lowfat chocolate frozen yogurt, and fat free cool whip on top for a REAL TREAT!!!

Enjoy!!! Let me know how they turn out for you!
