    List of Ingredients




    Diabetic Taj Mahal Dip


    2 t curry powder, according to taste
    1 t ground cumin, according to taste
    1 pkg frozen chopped spinach, thawed, drained & squeezed
    dry (10 oz)
    3/4 c low-fat sour cream
    1/2 c plain non-fat yogurt
    2 clv garlic, finely minced
    salt and ground black pepper, if desired, to taste

    Recipe





    In a small, nonstick skillet, stir curry and cumin over medium-
    low heat just until fragrant, 30-45 seconds. Transfer spices to
    a bowl. Combine spinach, sour cream, yogurt and garlic in a food
    processor and blend until spinach is pureed and mixture is smooth.

    Add one-third of the curry mixture and blend in. Add more of the
    curry mixture, to taste. Process until well-blended. Season to
    taste with salt, pepper and pepper sauce. Transfer to a
    container with a cover. Cover and refrigerate for 24 hours
    before using. Bring dip to room temperature before serving.

    When ready to serve, transfer dip to an attractive bowl and place
    in center of a large serving platter. Surround with assorted
    cutup vegetables (carrots, different colored bell peppers, sugar
    snap peas, cucumbers, broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini spears,
    sliced jicama) and, if desired, the thin Indian crackers called
    pappadams, or other, preferably whole-grain, crackers. Makes
    about 2 cups.
