Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large Avocados
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Black olives
- 4 drops Green food coloring (optional)
- 0.25 cup Chopped green onions
- 1 bag Corn or tortilla chips
- 0.5 cup Red bell pepper slices (garnish)
Instructions
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.
Mash the avocados using a fork until smooth, leaving some small chunks for texture.
Add the sour cream, chopped cilantro, lime juice, garlic powder, and salt to the bowl. Mix thoroughly to combine.
If desired, add the green food coloring to enhance the swampy look of the dip. Stir until the color is evenly distributed.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, creating uneven swirls on top to mimic the appearance of a swamp.
Finely chop the black olives and scatter them over the top as 'spooky swamp debris'.
Sprinkle chopped green onions and strategically place red bell pepper strips for a pop of color (and to mimic eerie swamp plants).
Serve the Halloween Swamp Dip with corn or tortilla chips on the side, and enjoy the creepy yet delicious goodness!
