tzatza, how do you make your dill dip, and imitation crab salad????

Actually, dill dip was this week's experiment. I just took (really, eyeballing measurements) some mayo, tofu sour cream, 3 cloves of garlic and a bunch of dill, threw it in the food processor. THen, added salt to taste and a little olive oil to thin out the consistency. Turned out yummy. We'll see what my guests will say tonight Twisted Evil

As for the imitation crab meat salad (btw, my DS' favorite for some reason; don't ask me but that's how I get in some fish into him), it is very simple: cut up a pack of imitation crab meat (any), add 4-5 chopped hard-boiled eggs, salt to taste, dress with mayo -voila! Variations: you can add a can of corn, or some boiled potatoes and can of peas. Enjoy!
