Dill Dip

I am the worst at eating raw vegetables.  So in an attempt to do better, I made this great dip from my friend Lexi.  It is simple, fast, easy to make low fat, and tastes great.  It also tastes great with chips.  I have used low fat everything, but feel free to do full fat or fat free.  This definitely makes the vegies go down!
Dill Dip
1 c. sour cream
2/3 c. mayonnaise
1 t. seasoning salt
1 t. dried dill weed, or 1 T. fresh
2 t. dried parsley, or 2 T. fresh
Mix and keep refrigerated.

Cowboy Caviar

This week I got together with some friends for lunch and I made this.  It was a huge hit.  It is fresh, filling, healthy, yummy, and quick and easy to make.  There are different versions out there of bean salsas, but this one you have got to try.
