Hey there foodie friends,

It’s time to start up the BBQ and chop up those fresh vegetables. Veggies and fruits are some of our favorite snacks, but that’s not all, so are dips, especially refreshing dips like this Honey Lemon Yogurt Dip that I am sharing with you.  This is a pretty easy dip and so very refreshing.  It goes so well with fresh, grilled vegetables, and fruit.  It’s ready in just a few minutes and made with tasty ingredients.

The ingredients used in this dip are lemon juice, honey, Greek yogurt, and olive oil, and of course just a pinch of salt. I have not added any lemon zest because I believe the juice was enough to give it that tangy flavor.  I tried this dip with lemon juice and zest combined, but it turned out too sour.  What is so great about this dip is that it has a beautiful silky thickness due to the Greek yogurt. The honey balances out the lemon juice and the olive oil and gives it a slight sweetness.

The yogurt is the key ingredient in this recipe, so as I have mentioned before, use good quality Greek yogurt if possible.  I used Greek yogurt with 2% fat but 5% also works.  If you use full fat greek yogurt, it will turn out quite thick, so dipping will not be easy.  There are no spices in this dip, I’ve only added a pinch of salt, but it is optional.  The lemon juice is from organic lemons, I love the juiciness of organic lemons. The honey in this recipe is Greek honey, I’ve been using the same brand for years.

So dip your veggies into this refreshing Honey Lemon Yogurt Dip and let me know what you think. 🙂

Have a wonderful morning/afternoon/evening everyone!

Welcome to a small corner of my Greek Heritage. Growing up in New York from Greek parents, was a challenge of its own...but the traditional food, tastes and aromas that my mother cooked always travelled me back to Greece.My mother is a wonderful cook, our house would always have that smell of home cooked food. I remember very clearly that we were only allowed fast food, once a week, that was a huge day for myself and my brother. Jumping up and down in the back car seat, laughing, just being kids. It is true that we all like to eat different foods, taste, smell, even try food that looks different than our regular meals at home and I think that is so natural.In my teens, I was not really into cooking, I enjoyed my magazines after school, listening to music, and just taking a breather. There were times that I would glance at some of my mom's recipes, more out of curiosity than to actually try to cook them. At that time I did not realise that cooking would become my passion one day. Slowly, I would start to look into my mom's recipes a bit more each day and I started to find it interesting as a hobby. Each month I would go into our neighborhood bookstore and pick up my monthly book, until one day I decided to stroll over into the cooking section. That summer was the first time I actually bought a cooking magazine....and I loved it.Cooking and baking started out as a hobby, but now after many years it is my passion. Exploring the cuisines, the spices, the oils, the scents, the variety of smells and tastes that exist. It was and still is an amazing journey without limits.So, come along with me on this adventure, and I hope you enjoy my recipes.Sophie
