Greek Yogurt Avocado Dip (or Spread)
A super creamy Avocado Dip made with greek yogurt, fresh lime juice, cilantro, and jalapeño. Made in minutes with an immersion blender for a silky smooth yet light end result. Dip your favorite veggies or crunchy things into it or spread it on a tortilla or sandwich for an easy flavor boost!
I promise I’m not being dramatic when I say you need this dip in your life. This creamy avocado dip has the perfect texture, takes less than 5 minutes to whip up, and the flavors are totally addicting.
It’s kind of like this popular Cilantro Lime Sauce, but with avocado. The simple addition amps up the creamy factor, giving this spread an almost fluffy texture.
It’s perfect for dipping and spreading, especially alongside crunchy things like these Deep Friend Plantain Chips. If you love avocado, you’re going to be making this recipe on repeat all year. You’re welcome 🙂

How to Make It
Tip: Don’t be afraid to add more lime juice, salt, jalapeño, etc. to get the flavor exactly where you like it.
Where to Use It
Like I said before, use this creamy avocado dip wherever you’re called to.
I’m really into dipping fresh carrots and cucumbers into it if I’m craving something light. But most days I’m reaching for some crunchy tortilla chips and dipping them 90% of the way into this dip.
It’s also a super flavorful spread that takes the average sandwich to an elevated place without any effort.

The Not-So Secret Ingredient: Greek Yogurt
Obviously I’m not the first person to add greek yogurt to a sauce in lieu of mayo or sour cream, and I won’t be the last.
But I’m being so serious when I tell you that it does something really special when added to this avocado spread. The creaminess of the ripe avocado with the equally light and fluffy greek yogurt is a match made in heaven. Plus, the tang greek yogurt pairs great with the acidic lime juice, herby cilantro, and subtly spicy jalapeño.
Mayo or sour cream could never; it’s a must have ingredient in this recipe.
