I made half of the recipe using about 1.5 Tbsp of the vinegar to keep the mix pretty thick. I used it as an open face sandwich sprinkling the cheese, nuts and red onion on top. It was really yummy on lightly toasted rye bread and Recipe #356135 on the side. I might mention too, that I used 95% fat free cream cheese and 0% fat Liberte Greek yogurt and 1 tsp Splenda for the sugar. Thank you Nancy for a great recipe.

This was great salad/dip!!! I only made 1/2 of the recipe and it still made a bowl full of dip!!! I served it with celery, carrots and wafer crackers, as our appetizer before our BBQ lunch. My son's girlfriend really enjoyed the dip and thought it was much better then the standard broccoli/bacon salads. The only changes I made was to sub toasted slivered almonds and a fat-free Greek yogurt. Thanks for sharing the recipe!!!
