you can use sour cream if you like or you can make a tofu sour cream


1 pack mori nu tofu


1/3 cup lemon juice


1/2 tsp salt


1/2 tsp garlic powder optional





puree till smooth tofu salt and garlic powder


slowly add lemon juice or water till you get consistancy of sour cream. lemon juice is more close to sour.





now take this tofu sour cream and add your favorite herbs


personally fresh sweet basil works wonderful pruee till smooth.


or make a ranch dressing using 1 tsp of italian seasioning and blend for 1 min on med high. add about 1/4 cup lemon juice if you like the flavor or vinigar if not. lemon is better for you health wise.
there is that package of ranch powder that you mix with sour cream.


it goes so well with cucumbers, you could probably dice up a bunch and use crackers or bagel chips to dig in. i've also had it with 2-3 diced jalapenoes (depends on whether you want it spicy) in it, which are extremely high in vitamin C. you could do both and probably combine in any manner of other stuff. fresh spinach sounds good.

1(8oz) fat free plain yogurt


1 (8oz) can crushed pinepple(drained well)

hidden valley ranch makes a good ranch dip for veggies it comes in powder form and you just add it to your sour cream you can find it in the salad dressing aisle (just make sure it says dip,they also sell a salad dressing)
My old go-to recipe is on the box of Knorr - spinach or spinach leek dip etc.
