Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, full-fat for creaminess)

1/2 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped

1/4 cup fresh chives, finely chopped

1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, loosely packed and chopped

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 clove garlic, minced (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Salt and black pepper, to taste

Optional: A pinch of cayenne pepper for a spicy kick

Instructions
 

Prepare the Avocados: Halve the avocados and carefully remove the pit. Scoop the flesh into a blender or food processor, ensuring no skin or pit remnants are included for a smooth dip.

    Incorporate Yogurt and Herbs: To the avocados, add the Greek yogurt, along with the chopped parsley, chives, and basil. This vibrant mix not only adds delightful flavor but also the signature green hue of the dip.

      Enhance Flavor: Squeeze the lemon juice over the contents for a fresh zing. Then, introduce the minced garlic and Dijon mustard to the mixture. These ingredients work together to elevate the overall creaminess and add a depth of flavor.

        Blend it Up: Process the mixture on high speed until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. If you find the dip is too thick, feel free to drizzle in a little water or extra lemon juice until you achieve your desired texture.

          Season to Taste: After blending, taste the dip and adjust the seasoning with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using) to your preference. Blend once more for just a few seconds to integrate the seasonings fully.

            Chill for Better Flavor (Optional): For a more robust flavor profile, refrigerate the dip for about 30 minutes before serving. This step is optional but highly recommended to let the flavors meld.

              Serve & Enjoy: Scoop the dip into a serving bowl and, for an added touch, garnish with extra fresh herbs on top. Pair with an assortment of fresh vegetables, pita chips, or tortilla chips for a delightful snack or appetizer guaranteed to impress your guests.
