Must Try Monday {Creamy Avocado Dip}

Avocados, cilantro, cumin….yea, all my favorite flavors pretty much!  I love those flavors, and we eat Mexican food frequently in our house.  Hence, making this Creamy Avocado Dip was a no brainer!  I made it for the Fourth of July for our family get together-and it was gone before we even fired up the grill.  Then, the hubby said, “When are you going to make some of that avocado stuff again?”  I know when he requests something again that he liked it the first time!  This is sooooo good!  And it’s fairly healthy.  Considering you’re using Greek yogurt in place of a sour cream is great.  And, to keep it low calorie, serve it with pita chips or fresh vegetables.  It’s even good spread inside wraps for sandwiches.

Creamy Avocado Dip {from Two Peas and Their Pod}

Ingredients:
1 avocado, skinned and chopped
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 clove of minced garlic
3 Tablespoons chopped cilantro
1 Tablespoon finely chopped jalapeno pepper, seeded
2 Tablespoons lime juice
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

Directions:
In a food process or blender, combine all the ingredients until they are smooth.  Serve with tortilla chips, pita chips, or fresh vegetables.  It keeps in the refrigerator for a few days.  It may appear brown on top, but if you give it a stir before serving, it gets green again :).
