Stonyfield partnered with Late July this month to challenge their Clean Plate Club members to make a perfect dip recipe using Stonyfield Greek.
When it comes to dips, sour cream and onion is a clear winner for me. It’s just the right amount of sweetness and tag. But it’s also probably as unhealthy as you can go. This is a dip that’ll treat you just as nice and that you can really fill up on.
Using Stonyfield Greek in this dip gives you the creaminess and tang of sour cream but with protein instead of fat. The avocado and olive oil add richness but are both fats you can feel good about dipping into.
My favorites with the dip were the Mild Green Mojo and Red Hot Mojo tortilla chips. The Mild Green Mojo have a slight tang from sour cream powder that pairs well with the creamy Greek in the dip. The Red Hot Mojo’s the spiciest of their flavors(which automatically made it a favorite of mine) and adds a kick to the dip’s sweetness.
Creamy Avocado Onion Dip
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 1 minute
Ingredients(Serves about 4 people):
- 1 medium-sized avocado
- 2 Tablespoons plain 0% Stonyfield Greek
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 Tablespoons olive oil
- 2 Tablespoons minced onions
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Method:
- Pit and seed the avocado and put the meet in a small mixing bowl.
- Mash the avocado with a fork until it’s smooth and uniform in color.
- Add in the Stonyfield Greek, salt, and olive oil and mix.
- In a small pan, heat some cooking oil and sauté the minced onions quickly until they turn brown(this shouldn’t take more than 30 seconds). Keep the pan moving so that they don’t burn.
- Add the onions and onion powder to the dip and mix until smooth.
- Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and serve with chips and crudités.
