Healthy Blue Cheese Dip Without Sour Cream
This healthier Blue Cheese Dip/Dressing is made with yogurt instead of sour cream. Lighter yet still incredibly delicious, it's perfect for serving with chicken wings or as a standalone blue cheese dip.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt, preferably full fat
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise, or vegan mayo
- 1-2 clove garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 2-3 dashes Tabasco Sauce or any hot sauce, optional
- 1/2 cup blue cheese, crumbled
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt*
- 1/4 teaspoon coarse black pepper
Instructions
- Place yogurt, mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, and Tabasco sauce (if using) in a medium bowl. Give it a stir. Add the blue cheese.
- Taste for seasoning and add in salt and black pepper.
- Chill, covered, until you are ready to serve.
- Serve with freshly cut carrots, broccoli, celery sticks, tomatoes, and/or chicken wings.
Notes
- Be sure to give it a taste before adding salt. Most blue cheese has an ample amount of salt so it is important to give it a taste before adding more.
- Make ahead: This veggie dip actually tastes better after chilling for a few hours in the fridge. Make it the night before or morning of, cover with plastic wrap, and store in the fridge.
- Storing Leftovers: To store leftover blue cheese dip, simply transfer to an airtight container and keep for up to 5 days.
