I love yogurt, specially plain. When I was young my father was making this dip for his friends when they get together for drinks, but I remember to have it with chips and love it and still prepare it for my party too. to prepare this dip you add some spices and other thing (not fruit) to taste different. You can serve with drink, chips and corn chips.
