Ingredients
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 ripe avocado
- 0.5 cup fresh parsley
- 0.25 cup fresh chives
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- 1
Prepare the base by adding the plain Greek yogurt and the ripe avocado to a food processor. Process until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
- 2
Add the fresh parsley, fresh chives, fresh lemon juice, and minced garlic to the food processor. Continue to process until the herbs are finely chopped and well incorporated into the mixture, approximately 2-3 minutes.
- 3
With the food processor running on low, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until the dip is smooth and emulsified. This should take about 1-2 minutes, creating a luscious texture.
- 4
Season the Green Goddess Dip with salt and black pepper to taste. Pulse a few more times to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the dip, about 30 seconds.
- 5
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl. For best flavor, let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully.

Tips & Notes
- If substituting olive oil for butter, use about 3/4 the amount (olive oil is 100% fat, butter is ~80%).
- Full-fat yogurt produces a richer result; reduced-fat works fine in most recipes.
- Zest the lemon before juicing — it's nearly impossible to zest after the lemon is squeezed.
