Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Red bell peppers
- 2 medium Garlic cloves
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
Place the whole red bell peppers on a baking sheet and roast them in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skin is charred and blistered.
Once roasted, transfer the peppers to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let them steam for about 10 minutes, which will make peeling the skins easier.
While the peppers are steaming, peel and mince the garlic cloves.
Once the peppers have cooled enough to handle, gently peel away the charred skin, remove the stems, and discard the seeds.
In a food processor, combine the peeled roasted peppers, minced garlic, cream cheese, Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, ground black pepper, fresh dill, and paprika.
Process the mixture until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed to ensure an even consistency.
Taste the dip and adjust seasoning if necessary with additional black pepper or lemon juice to your preference.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve chilled with your choice of fresh vegetables, low-sodium crackers, or pita bread.
