Calico Dip

MagsMeals's Note:

This is a favorite for family get-togethers. It goes back over 20 years because our mother, now deceased, made it way back when. You can make it light by using all low fat ingredients or use full fat versions. We have a large family and usually have to double or triple the recipe.
