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.
