Trying to use the cookbooks

A friend of mine is having a cookout this weekend and I offered to make some appetizers for her

First up we have the tried and true recipe for a veggie dip. Trust me, it doesn't taste low fat even though the ingredients are. The secret is to not use fat free - it changes the consistency of the products. This one is ALWAYS a huge hit

Finished product. Obviously I used more mango than was in the original recipe. The recipe was only to serve 4 as a garnish and I didn't realize that. I added 4 mangoes to make this amount. I haven't tasted it yet, but I am hoping it is good.
