Quick and Healthy Recipe: Yogurt Dip (With A Kick!)

Yogurt is commonly paired up with berries, bananas, and oatmeal, but it can also serve as a wonderful base for savory dips.

This is one of my favorites -- the texture and taste go excellently with some freshly toasted pita wedges or your favorite tortilla chips.

You will need:

1 cup non-fat Greek yogurt (if you don't use Greek yogurt, the dip will be too watery)
3 garlic cloves
1/8 cup chopped onions

2 teaspoons tomato paste

1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder

Salt and pepper to taste

OPTIONAL:
2 teaspoons cilantro/cumin

Blend ingredients and enjoy a low-sodium, fat-free, delicious dip!
