Adapted from Simply in Season, this dip is super quick to make!
Ingredients:
- 1 bunch steamed kale (could also use other greens. I steamed it by adding a bit of water to a large frying pan and stir frying it)
- 1 C plain yogurt
- 1 can chickpeas
- 1/4 C mayonnaise
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 C chives
- 1 T lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp salt
Puree in blender or food processor.
The Verdict: The original recipe called for half the amount of chickpeas, but I didn’t want to use half a can so I used a whole one. It turned out a wee bit on the soupy side but the flavor was seriously delicious. I served it on Triscuits and DH loved it!

WOW! Great way to use that extra kale.
I’m kinda curious – is the surprise something distinct about in the flavor or simply that something so green tastes so good?
I’m also a a kale-in-my-smoothies girl.

I think the surprise is that you use kale instead of spinach. I know, not super exciting LOL.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen kale used this way. I suppose it’s kinda like spinach, so why not? I love all the ingredients, so I am sure I’d enjoy it.
Stopping by from SITS.
