Yogurt makes a lighter alternative to heavy sour cream-based dips. This rendition tastes lightly of green onion, parsley and lemon and is the perfect dip to serve with crisp veggies. Save the extra for a baked potato topping.
It’s that easy: I use 5% fat yogurt when making this dip because I like the richer flavor, but you can use a lower fat yogurt if you choose. It just won’t be quite as creamy.
