¼ cup pickle relish (dill or sweet) or chopped pickles
¼ cup plain nonfat or low-fat yogurt
2 Tablespoons mayonnaise

3. Mix together until well combined.

Middle students loved this recipe! They had fun chopping up pickles plus the green onion and radishes we added. We ate this on whole wheat tortillas with grated jimica and lettuce. Super yummy and fast!!!
