MUM'S " MOCK CHICKEN" DIP

Mum's

Isn't it great when you eat something and it takes you back to being a child again! Well that's exactly what this dip does for me. My mum used to make this every time she threw a party or had people for drinks and nibbles. I would always have my own bowl and my own box of crackers and I would go off to some quiet spot and stuff my little face! I still love it now, so much so that I spoon it out of the pan while I'm cooking it (although I am trying to exercise more self control). This is such a quick and easy dip to make with stuff that you would normally have in the house, so a great standby for when people turn up unexpectedly. As for tasting like chicken? Well, I'll let you decide...but I was never convinced. Either way it tastes great!
