Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

1 small jalapeño, seeds removed and finely chopped (adjust based on your spice tolerance)

1 cup Greek yogurt

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice

1 clove garlic, finely minced

1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish, optional)

Tortilla chips or an array of fresh vegetables (such as carrot sticks, cucumber slices, and bell pepper strips) for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the Avocados: Begin by slicing the avocados in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the pit using a spoon or a knife. Scoop the creamy flesh into a medium-sized mixing bowl.

    Combine Ingredients: To the bowl with the avocado, add the finely chopped jalapeño, Greek yogurt, lime juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper.

      Blend Until Smooth: Using a fork or a hand mixer, mash and whip the ingredients together. Continue blending until the mixture reaches a creamy and smooth consistency. If a chunkier dip is preferred, mash it lightly, leaving some small pieces of avocado for texture.

        Taste and Customize: Sample the dip and adjust to your liking. If you wish for more acidity, add an extra splash of lime juice, or enhance the savory flavor by incorporating a pinch more salt.

          Serve: Spoon the dip into a stylish serving bowl. If desired, sprinkle the top with chopped cilantro for a fresh finish. Pair with crunchy tortilla chips or a colorful assortment of fresh vegetable sticks for a delightful dipping experience.
