- 1 avocado
- 1/2 cup cream cheese softened
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 1/2 cups fresh parsley packed
- 1/2 cup fresh basil
- 1/4 cup fresh chives
- 1 small garlic clove
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
- Salt & black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a food processor or blender.1 cup Greek yogurt, 1 avocado, 1/2 cup cream cheese, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 1/2 cups fresh parsley, 1/2 cup fresh basil, 1/4 cup fresh chives, 1 small garlic clove, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest, Salt & black pepper
- Blend until completely smooth and vibrant green.
- Taste and adjust salt, lemon, or herbs as needed.
- Chill for at least 30 minutes to let flavors develop.
Notes
- Ripe avocado: Use a ripe avocado so the dip blends up smooth and creamy without any lumps.
- Pack the herbs: Pack the parsley and basil tightly when measuring to get as much herb flavor as possible
- Easy on the garlic: A small garlic clove is enough since raw garlic becomes stronger after chilling.
- Scrape the bowl: For the smoothest texture, scrape down the food processor bowl and blend until completely creamy.
- Don't skip the chill: Chill the dip for at least thirty minutes so the fresh herbs have time to fully infuse the yogurt base.
- Thin if needed: If the mixture feels too thick, add a small drizzle of olive oil or a splash of water before blending again.
