Recipe: High-Protein Yogurt Dip

🥣 Ingredients You Can Feel Good About

Let’s take a closer look at why this yogurt dip doesn’t just taste good — it does good, too.

🍦 Greek Yogurt (0% or 2%)

The star of the show! Greek yogurt is:

  • Packed with protein (7–8g per serving), helping stabilize blood sugar and keep you full

  • A natural source of probiotics, which support gut health, digestion, and immune function

  • High in calcium and vitamin B12, essential for bone strength and energy production

  • A great substitute for mayonnaise or sour cream, with far fewer calories and saturated fat

Whether you choose non-fat or 2%, you’re getting a creamy base with amazing versatility.

🍋 Lemon Juice

This little splash brings bright, zesty flavor and functional benefits:

  • A natural source of vitamin C, supporting immune health

  • Helps balance the dip’s richness without adding calories

  • Aids digestion and may help reduce bloating when paired with probiotic-rich foods

🧂 Old Bay Seasoning

Old Bay isn’t just for seafood — it's the secret weapon in this dip:

  • Adds bold, savory flavor without needing a long list of spices

  • Contains celery seed and paprika, which offer anti-inflammatory benefits

  • Keeps your snack exciting without added sugar or artificial ingredients

Feel free to experiment with Cajun spice or everything bagel seasoning for variety!
