Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

1/4 cup Greek yogurt (or sour cream)

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (approximately 1 lime)

1 clove garlic, minced

1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt (to taste)

1/4 teaspoon black pepper (to taste)

2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

1 small jalapeño, seeds removed and finely diced (optional, for heat)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Avocados: Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.

    Mash the Base: Using a fork or a potato masher, mash the avocados until they reach your desired level of creaminess—smooth or slightly chunky.

      Add the Creaminess: Stir in the Greek yogurt until well combined with the avocado mash.

        Infuse Flavor: Add the fresh lime juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, sea salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

          Taste and Adjust: Taste the dip and adjust seasoning as needed. If you like it a bit spicier, fold in the diced jalapeño.

            Finish with Freshness: If using, add the chopped cilantro and gently mix to combine.

              Chill and Serve: For the best flavor, cover the dip with plastic wrap (pressing it directly onto the surface of the dip to prevent browning) and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Serve with tortilla chips, fresh veggies, or your favorite snacks.
