EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Watching fat grams? Use fat-free or low-fat cream cheese in place of the regular cream cheese.

Chocolate lovers will enjoy Chocoholic Apricot Spread. Replace the salsa with chocolate syrup, the olives with miniature chocolate chips, the cilantro with fresh mint and the crackers with wafer cookies or shortbread.
