Mango Salsa

April 24, 2012

I’ve actually posted about this salsa before as a topping for Jerk Chicken & Flank Steak.  But then I happened to try it on a chip and it was all over! And as much as I’ve made this salsa in the past year or so, it definitely deserves it’s own post.  I will have to [...]

Pumpkin Pie Dip

October 4, 2011

 A few years back my friend, Alison, from Sunday School brought this dip to one of our gatherings and I immediately wanted the recipe.  It literally tasted like pumpkin pie in a creamy delicious dip form! I adapted her version just a tad because pumpkin pie filling hasn’t hit our store shelves yet.  I used [...]
