My favourite cream cheese dip recipe!

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

sour cream

Plain yogurt provides a similar tangy flavor while being lower in fat.

mayonnaise

🥗Healthier: avocado

💰Cheaper: Greek yogurt

Avocado adds creaminess with healthy fats.

cheddar cheese

🥗Healthier: reduced-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Reduced-fat cheese lowers calories while processed cheese is often cheaper.

Cut cream cheese into cubes and leave at room temperature for about 20 minutes to soften.

In a blender, combine softened cream cheese and sour cream; blend until smooth.

Add shredded double Gloucester cheese (reserve some for texture) and blend until combined.

Add 2 tablespoons of green onions and mix with a spatula to avoid pureeing them.

Transfer the mixture into a covered bowl and refrigerate for about 12 to 24 hours to let flavors meld.

Consume within 2 to 3 days due to the presence of onions to avoid spoilage.

Serve with sturdy crisps or potato chips, preferably salt and vinegar flavor.
