-

Cracked Pepper & Olive Triscuits
Sandwich ham
Provolone cheese, light
Spicy garlic and curry dipping sauce
Green onion, chopped

Place a small piece of ham on the triscuits and overlay the ham with a piece of provolone cheese.

Toast in a toaster oven for 3 minutes.

Drop a dollop of dipping sauce on the cheese and sprinkle with green onion.


Spicy Garlic and Curry Dipping Sauce
1 c. Hellmann's light mayo
1-2 tbsp Chilli garlic sauce
3 Green onion, chopped
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tsp Curry powder
1 tsp Dill
1/2 tsp Crushed chilli pepper
2 tsp Lime juice
Ground pepper

Mix all the ingredients together.

Chill for 1 hour before serving.

My comments:

This dipping sauce is a variation of the sauces we made for our meat fondue and it's really good dip for crackers, bread or veggies. It has a lot of flavour and you can adjust the ingredients to your preference.

The whole snack was delicious and flavourful. This is a great recipe because you can play around with the type of meat, cheese and even the Triscuits to get really awesome snacks. For a healthier option, omit the dipping sauce and replace it with 1/2 a grape tomato. Also, you can select the reduced fat or low sodium Triscuits instead of the originals.
