Now that I've divulged how hungry I am, I figured it would be a good time to share a recipe for a healthy little snack to tide you over while that chicken's cooking! If you've got kids, this one may be a real winner. Slice up some of their favorite fruits and let them enjoy this yogurt dip. Apples, pears, oranges and bananas are the first things that come to mind, but I can also see this drizzled on chunks of kiwifruit or used as a dip for dried papaya or mango strips as well. Give it a shot and see what combos you and your family or friends can come up with!
