About Yogurt Mayonnaise Dip
Yogurt And Mayonnaise Dip is a healthier version of classic ranch dip, with some mayonnaise replaced with Greek yogurt. This dip comes together in under 10 minutes using simple ingredients and is great to serve as a party appetizer with french fries, nachos, crackers, potato chips, or fresh veggie sticks. It is also great to slather on sandwiches and wraps. Making this dip at home is much better than buying a packet because Tip – To make thick yogurt using plain yogurt, line a fine-mesh strainer with a muslin cloth. Add the yogurt to the strainer and let it sit over a bowl for 20 minutes. All the extra water will drip down, and you will get thick yogurt. Mayonnaise – The full-fat mayonnaise gives you a creamier dip. You can also choose light mayo to save on some calories. Sour Cream – Adds a slightly tangy taste along with adding to the creamy texture. I have a super simple recipe for making sour cream at home. Do check it out. Italian Seasoning – Italian seasoning adds more flavors, making the dip even more addictive. Extra Virgin Olive Oil – Use a high-quality one! Others – You will also need garlic, freshly squeezed lime juice, lime zest, red pepper flakes, salt, and ground black pepper. Lime juice and zest can be replaced with lemon juice and lemon zest. You can also add fresh herbs like fresh parsley, fresh chives, or basil, but the shelf life will be slightly reduced. Add a little heat to the dip by adding some hot sauce or cayenne pepper.
1 cup Greek yogurt 3 tablespoon Mayonnaise ¼ cup sour cream 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lime juice ½ teaspoon lime zest 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil 1 teaspoon minced garlic 1 tablespoon mixed Italian seasoning ½ teaspoon salt ¼ teaspoon black pepper powder
Whisk well using a wire whisk. Check for salt and pepper and add more if required. Chill the dip for at least 30 minutes for the flavors to blend well. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl. Drizzle extra virgin olive oil, red pepper flakes, and chopped parsley on top, and serve chilled!
