In the Spirit of Mardi Gras

We couldn't let Fat Tuesday pass us by without a little doo-dad of a recipe to help all our pickle peeps get through the Lenten season.  You know the period before Easter where Christian's center on prayer, penance, fasting and self-denial. 

Here's a pickle dip recipe to try while you're working on the fasting and self-denial... it's low calorie, a little spicy to help you remember to not eat too much and just the right ingredients for a small get together...  Enjoy!



Lenten in a pickle dip

16 oz. low fat sour cream
8 oz. non-fat cream cheese (room temp)
1 garlic clove, minced
garlic salt to taste
1/4 cup of diced Original in a pickle
2 TBLS. of diced Original in a pickle peppers
pickle juice

Beat the sour cream and cream cheese along with the garlic.  Add pickle juice for desired consistency.  Add pickles and peppers.  Refrigerate 2 hours - overnight.  Serve with carrots, or baked chips!

Yummy!  And no guilty feelings required!
