Preparation
In a mixing bowl stir together the finely chopped cooked chicken or
drained and finely chopped canned chicken, chopped avocado, seeded
and chopped tomato, chopped onion, seeded and chopped pickled
jalapeno peppers, and minced garlic.
Stir in the sour cream, milk, mayonnaise or salad dressing, lemon
juice, dried oregano, and salt. Stir till ingredients are thoroughly
combined. Cover and chill till serving time.
If desired, garnish the dip with avocado slices. Serve with Oven-Crisp
Tortilla Chips or other tortilla chips. Makes about 2 3/4 cups dip.
Oven-Crisp Tortilla Chips: Here's an easy way to make your own
tortilla chips without frying them. Cut flour tortillas into wedges
with kitchen shears or a knife. Place the wedges on an ungreased
baking sheet and toast in a 350F oven for 10 to 12 minutes or till
dry and crisp. You'll find they're sturdy for dipping, there's no
messy cleanup, and the chips are lower in calories than those you buy
in the store.

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easy
When deciding on a weight loss program, it is essential to try to restrict your intake of salt, fat and refined carbohydrate.
The case against low carbohydrate diets
Its popular as hell, but it is really safe for you?
Moreover, it has been suggested that the kidneys can become overworked and that the resultant change in acid levels in the blood causes bone loss, but some of the scientifc research testing the theory have struggled to find significant evidence of deterioration of the kidneys or bone damage.
The majority of the undesirable side-effects observed, such as feeling tired, diarrhea, constipation, or bad headaches are only temporary, but critics contend that low carb diets are not without serious long term side effects.
Foods rich in lycopene
(includes guava, red bell peppers & tomato puree)
The phytochemical lycopene is a non-synthetic coloring agent and one of the phytochemical group known as 'carotenids'. It is the reason for the red hue of many food types.
Intrestingly, unlike numerous healthy agents, this useful phytochemical is not damaged if it is cooked, rather it is actually improved by being heated.
.
Lycoprene's most interesting advantage is that it works as an antioxidant and seems to be of use in the battle to lower the risk of cancer.
Lycopene is the strongest quencher of singlet oxygen, which is correlated with skin aging. It is also thought by many experts to block the progression of diseases affecting arterial blood vessels.
