Greek Yogurt Dips for Veggies
Whether it's summertime and you are looking for more ways to eat all of the fresh produce that you've picked up at the farmers market, or you are packing lunches during the school year hoping that your kids will eat their veggies, dips are the way to go. Plus, some of these can even double as dressing for your favorite salads and they make great low-carb party appetizers.
What Are Some of the Best Greek Yogurt Dip Recipes?
From classic to creative, there are so many options for dips made with Greek yogurt. You can find all of these ideas by clicking through the slideshow, but are are some of my favorites:
Ranch Dip: This herby classic is always a favorite, whether you are pouring Ranch dressing over your salad or dunking your chicken wings. Start with Greek yogurt and stir in a seasoning packet, make it from scratch with fresh herbs, or try the version in the slideshow made entirely with dried seasonings from your pantry.
Spinach Dip: Whether hot or cold, Greek yogurt is a great substitute for the mayo or sour cream in many of the original versions of this dip.
Onion Dip: No need to open up one of those cans or jars that have a weird flavor, texture, and ingredients. You can always use a packet of onion soup mix with Greek yogurt instead of sour cream, but making your own caramelized onions to create your own onion dip has an unbeatable flavor.
Tzatziki: This is the traditional dip that was made with Greek yogurt before it even became a trend. Filled with cucumbers and herbs, it has a fresh flavor that is great to pair with your favorite Mediterranean recipes or just to dunk your veggies.
And much more!
What Can I do With Leftover Greek Yogurt?
Now that you've opened that container of Greek yogurt, what else can you make with it? Of course, you can spoon it into a bowl and top it with fruit and granola, or add it to your favorite smoothie recipes. But just like the dips, anytime you would usually use mayonnaise, there is usually an option to swap it out with Greek yogurt to lighten things up a bit. Try some of these tasty ideas:
