Ingredients
Dip Ingredients
- 1 large ripe avocado, peeled and diced (about 1 cup)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning blend
- 1/2 teaspoon agave nectar (optional)
- Salt to taste
Serving Suggestions
- Crackers
- Fresh celery sticks
- Carrots
- Red bell peppers
- Cucumbers
Instructions
- Mash the avocado and lime juice: In a medium bowl, mash the diced avocado and fresh lime juice together until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring a uniform texture for the dip.
- Add remaining ingredients: Stir in the plain Greek yogurt, ranch seasoning blend, and optional agave nectar until everything is well combined. Taste and add salt gradually according to your preference, since ranch seasoning blends can vary in saltiness.
- Chill and serve: For best results, let the dip sit covered in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled alongside crackers, fresh celery, carrots, red bell peppers, or cucumber slices for dipping.
Notes
- For a smoother texture, blend the ingredients briefly in a food processor instead of mashing by hand.
- The optional agave nectar adds a subtle sweetness to balance the tang of the lime and yogurt.
- Adjust salt carefully depending on the salt content of your ranch seasoning blend.
- This dip is best consumed within 1-2 days of preparation for freshness and optimal flavor.
- Letting the dip rest for at least 30 minutes enhances the flavor blend but it can also be enjoyed immediately.
