A Light Red Pepper Dip
This roasted red pepper dip recipe has quickly become our favorite veggie dip thanks to its fullness in flavor, yet lightness on calories and fat. It uses non-fat Greek yogurt, and only a little bit of olive oil mayo (which you can completely leave out if you want to make it even lighter). Of course, you can serve this with crackers or chips as well. We tried it with a multi-grain chip from Costco and it was delicious. If you are looking for a lighter appetizer to take to your next tailgate party, this would be perfect! It is a great switch up from your usual ranch dips, and no one will even suspect that it is healthier. The flavor is even better if you make it up a day earlier and refrigerate overnight.
