Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

1 cup Greek yogurt

1/2 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped

1/4 cup fresh chives, finely chopped

1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, finely chopped

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 clove garlic, minced

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Optional: A pinch of cayenne pepper for an extra kick

Instructions
 

Prepare the Avocados: Start by cutting the avocados in half lengthwise. Gently twist to separate the halves and use a spoon to scoop the flesh into a blender or food processor, discarding the pits.

    Incorporate Yogurt and Fresh Herbs: To the creamy avocado flesh, add the Greek yogurt. Follow with the freshly chopped parsley, chives, and basil. These aromatic herbs are essential for giving your dip its vibrant green color and refreshing taste.

      Enhance the Flavor: Pour in the fresh lemon juice to add a zesty brightness. Then, include the minced garlic and Dijon mustard. These components will not only enrich the dip's creaminess but also add layers of flavor.

        Blend Until Smooth: Secure the lid on the blender or food processor and blend the mixture until it's completely smooth and creamy. If the consistency is too thick for your liking, feel free to add a splash of water or an extra squeeze of lemon juice to achieve your desired texture.

          Season to Perfection: Taste the dip and adjust its flavor by adding salt, freshly ground black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using) according to your preference. Blend for a few more seconds to ensure the seasonings are well incorporated.

            Chill for Best Results (Optional): For maximum flavor, transfer the dip to a serving dish and cover. Refrigerate it for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld beautifully. This step is optional but highly recommended!

              Serve & Enjoy: When ready to serve, transfer the dip to a decorative bowl. Consider garnishing with additional chopped herbs for a pop of color. Pair your creamy avocado dip with an array of fresh vegetables, pita chips, or tortilla chips for a delightful snack or appetizer.
