What You Need for this Goat Cheese Dip
Jarred roasted red peppers: We love using these as it’s much easier than roasting red bell peppers yourself!
Non-fat Greek yogurt: Non-fat Greek yogurt keeps things nutritious without piling on the calories. It’s also packed with protein!
Goat cheese: Goat cheese has a tangy flavor profile and adds a bit of richness to the dip.
Fresh thyme: Fresh thyme adds an earthy element to this creamy dip.
Lemon juice: Lemon juice adds a bit of acidity to cut through the creaminess of the dip.
Food Processor: Using a food processor makes this recipe easy! All you have to do is dump all your ingredients in and BLEND! If you don’t have access to a food processor, try using a high-speed blender instead.

Variations and Substitutions
Swap the Greek: If you want to make things a little creamier, try swapping out the Greek yogurt for sour cream or cream cheese. You won’t get as much protein, but you’ll still get tons of flavor and creaminess.
Choose a different herb: If thyme isn’t your thing, play around with other fresh herbs like rosemary or oregano. These herbs add an earthy touch to the dip.
Swap the lemon juice: Swap the lemon juice for red wine vinegar for a bit more flavor.
Use a different cheese: Not a fan of goat cheese? Swap it out for feta cheese. We recommend the regular fat feta as low or non-fat feta can be too crumbly for this dip.
Add some heat: Want to add a bit of a kick? Swap out the regular roasted red peppers for fire-roasted red peppers!
Tips
Make a double batch so you can eat it throughout the week!
If you don’t have a food processor, a Blender works great too! Just make sure you scrape the sides of the blender so everything blends nicely!
Storage
Store leftover dip in an airtight container or bowl covered in plastic wrap in the fridge for up to 3 days.
