Ingredients

  • 2 large avocados
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt full-fat is best for texture
  • 2 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 2 teaspoon fresh cilantro finely chopped
  • 1-2 teaspoon garlic salt to taste

Instructions

  • Mash avocado with a fork.
  • Stir in all other ingredients.
  • Garnish with extra cilantro, if desired.

Notes

  • The avocado should still be somewhat firm when you squeeze it, and the skin should be almost black. If the skin is green, let the avocados sit at room temperature for a day before using them. 
  • You can make your avocado dip smooth or chunky. For a chunkier version, leave some of the avocados intact during mashing. 
  • If you’re not a fan of cilantro, flat-leaf parsley is the best substitute, or you can leave it out altogether.
  • If you aren’t in a hurry, cover the dip with a flush piece of plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving. This gives the individual flavors more time to wake up and mingle.
