This was a great dip, and a great combination of vegetables. We love radishes in our house, so this ended up being a big winner. I did use low fat sour cream, as suggested in the intro, and I think it makes the dip just as good as a dip with regular sour cream.

Lainey, another winning dip from you to us! WOW, I luved the flavours of this summery, fresh dip! Mmmm, the green onion added such a nice bite and the bell pepper a great sweetness. I felt it was more than enough, so left out the sugar. The radishes also added a nice earthy, tart flavour and all in all this dip was just superb! Ill make it again! THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing it with us! Made and reviewed for Potluck Tag May 2010.

Wonderful, fresh tasting, dip which I'll be making again. I love the chopped vegetables in the dip - they result in great flavour and a beautiful colour. I used reduced-fat sour cream and mayo, and orange bell pepper, and substituted Splenda for sugar. I added about 1/4 tsp salt. Great recipe!

I made this for a party and served with some homemade crackers and carrots. Most people enjoyed this dip, and the ones who didnt did not like do not like peppers in he first place. Very good, plan on making again for more parties. I also used low fat ingredients and used part yogurt for sour cream with still great results.
