Looks like a great recipe...do you have anything else I can use instead of Mayo?

There are many types of Mayo substitutes. From plain yogurt, to creme fraiche, to blended low fat cottage cheese, to "soy" versions. Or light or Free Mayo if it is the fat you are avoiding, or ranch dressing, or buttermilk, or even mashed avocado, except it wouldn't melt. Same with hummus, or dijonaisse.

Good luck!! This is a yummy dip.

It all depends on the recipe, as to what might work best.

Thank you Bunti -- you answered before I got back here.

Hope you all enjoy it.
