Ingredients
3 garlic cloves
1 can (15 ounces) low-sodium chickpeas, drained
1/4 cup plain fat-free yogurt
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water before preparing the dip.
Add the drained chickpeas, garlic cloves, yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, paprika, and black pepper to a food processor.
Blend on medium-high speed for 3–5 minutes, scraping down the sides as needed, until the mixture reaches a smooth, creamy consistency.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and serve at room temperature alongside fresh vegetables, pita chips, or crackers.
Comments
Every ingredient is in stock at any Charlotte grocer—Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Walmart, and ALDI all carry canned chickpeas, plain yogurt, and bulk garlic year-round. The cost per serving lands around $0.80-$1.10, driven mainly by yogurt and olive oil quality; using store-brand versions keeps it under a dollar. The stated 10 minutes is honest for a blender or food processor job, though hand-mashing would push it to 15-20 minutes and yield a grainier texture. This reheats poorly (yogurt breaks), making it a same-night dip that suits quick weeknight appetizers or lunch boxes better than a planned leftover.
