Description:
This creamy, low-calorie dip is a quick and easy way to add flavor to your favorite raw veggies or crunchy potato chips. The combination of nonfat plain yogurt, light mayonnaise, and Miracle Whip light creates a tangy yet smooth base, while dried chives, soy sauce, and spicy mustard give it a little kick. It’s perfect for a healthy snack or as part of a spread for larger gatherings. I personally prefer using light mayonnaise over nonfat, as it adds a bit more flavor to the dip. However, if you prefer the taste of nonfat mayo, feel free to use it instead. Serve it with carrot sticks, celery sticks, green bell pepper strips, cherry tomatoes, or cucumber slices for a guilt-free treat.
