Creamy summer dips are usually laden with fat, but yogurt dip is a healthy and delicious option. Dairy-free yogurt is one of the few foods that work in both savory and sweet presentations, and there aren’t many foods that don’t go well with yogurt.

Non-dairy yogurt is also versatile. You can grab a container in the morning and top it with seeds, nuts, and fruits for a healthy breakfast.

Scent it with cumin and dollop on top of your favorite vegetable for something refreshing and light. I also like yogurt dip to brighten or balance hot foods like curries.

These recipes feature Silk plain yogurt – soy or almond. What I love about the unflavored Silk Dairy-Free Yogurt Alternatives are the low sugar content and no saturated fat. Silk products are also non-GMO verified.

When purchasing dairy-free yogurt, always look at the label’s ingredients. Many yogurt manufacturers add corn syrup for sweetness, artificial sweeteners, and other ingredients that are not healthful.

Today I made three quick and easy yogurt dip recipes. Yogurt dip provides a healthy base for vegetables, crackers, or pita bread.

To create a thicker, more Greek-style dip, just place the yogurt in a fine mesh sieve that is lined with cheesecloth or coffee filters. Then put the yogurt into the strainer over a bowl, and refrigerate overnight. Discard the liquid at the bottom of the bowl, and you are now left with a thicker yogurt. To be honest, it really isn’t necessary for these yogurt dip recipes.

Also, substitute your favorite herbs in any of these recipes. During the summer I love my holy trinity of mint, basil, and cilantro in pretty much everything.
