I stuck with the base of this recipe but changed the vegetables that I put in it according to what I had on hand. I used carrots, broccoli, red pepper, and shallots and thought it was very good. I actually used it as a veggie dip and enjoyed it very much. Thanks for posting!

Made this for bunko and everyone loved it. I used RF cream cheese and mayo. Also, I chopped the veggies in the food processor, then just dumped in the remaining ingredients and whirled it all together. Didn't really need to drain the veggies. I did think it needed a bit of something else, like some garlic or dill, to perk up the flavor a little more.

I just omitted the onions. I used a little bit of Mrs Dash seasoning instead of salt and a dash of pepper. It's delicious. We served it with crackers. Thanks Sweety :) Made for Market tag.
