Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole ripe avocado
- 0.5 cup fresh cilantro
- 0.25 cup fresh parsley
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 whole garlic clove
- 0.5 whole jalapeño (seeded for less heat, optional)
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons water (as needed)
Instructions
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a blender or food processor.
Add the fresh cilantro, parsley, Greek yogurt, lime juice, olive oil, garlic, and jalapeño to the blender.
Sprinkle in the salt and black pepper.
Blend the ingredients together, starting at a lower speed, until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add the water one tablespoon at a time to reach your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed by adding more lime juice, salt, or pepper.
Transfer the green dip to a serving bowl and enjoy immediately, or chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to enhance the flavors.
Serve with chips, fresh vegetables, or spread on sandwiches.
