A straightforward recipe that requires no cooking at all and can be put together in just 10 minutes. For my dips, I love the sour cream and yogurt combo. Sour cream and yogurt when teamed up with spices create the most yummiest and creamiest ranch dip.
Add in your favorite veggies, mashed avocados and stir up a delicious delight. Why avocados? Because avocado is a super food and a great source of -vitamins, minerals, fiber and healthy fats. When mixed together with sour cream and yogurt, it creates a nutrition-packed dip – now that tastes delicious!
There are no set rules for this recipe – play around with some of the ingredients for extra crunch and flavor. Like substituting mayo with sour cream or adding leafy greens to this dip, or adding chopped onions are some of the great additions. Improvise to taste as the possibilities are endless.
Now the question is, what to serve this dip with? Just about anything – fresh veggies like celery sticks, carrots, broccoli florets, pita chips, crackers, tortilla chips – all of them are great accompaniments.
