These days my sleep schedule is a bit off kilter and unfortunately, it's effecting my appetite. Which is rough on me since I LOVE to eat! Although it's just about dinner time I am not hungry at all - but, since know how important it is to eat several small meals a day (it keeps your body functioning at it's highest potential while keeping your metabolism up) I was determined to find something that sounded appetizing. I was actually on the phone with my brother when my search began; he suggested I get a Big Mac from McDonald's......ah, 16 year-old boys - Lol! I decided to go with something a bit on the lighter side. While scavenging through my fridge and herb garden, I came up with this recipe for an easy and nutritious veggie dip:
1/2 Cup Light Mayonnaise (I used Smart Balance)
1/2 Cup Fat-Free Plain Yogurt
1 Palmful Fresh Dill
1 Palmful Fresh Chives
1 Palmful Fresh Basil
1 Teaspoon of Onion Powder
1 Teaspoon of Garlic Pepper
1 Pinch of Paprika
Mix and enjoy with fresh veggies.
* I should note that I have pretty small hands, so I'm not really sure how much a "palmful" actually is. I'm so bad about recording measurements. :)
