Friday Food Favs: YOGIDIP


It is the word that makes my heart smile. It makes a wonderful spread on sandwiches and it almost makes fresh vegetables taste better (although it is difficult to improve on a fresh purple carrot or a hydroponically grown cherry tomato)! One of unique features about this dip is that—as its name suggests—it is made out of Greek yogurt. Yes, the very delightful yogurt that is carefully strained in order to offer it a thick texture that is closer to sour cream than traditional runny yogurt. For a texture eater like me, thicker means better! While there is no hint of the "tanginess" of yogurt, it has all of the same "good bacteria" (a feature I thought some of you health-conscious consumers might want to know!).


I personally, have tasted the 3 out of the 5 different flavors and by far my favorite is the Garden Vegetable; however you like all things spicy than the Jalapeno cheese one is for you!

You can find this 7th wonder of the chip N dip world at Ralphs, Jensen’s, Henry’s....and other little markets like my university Farm Store.
