A great-tasting dip can make eating your veggies a lot easier. But dips often come loaded with calories, sodium, and saturated fat. This delicious makeover ditches the sour cream and instead uses Greek yogurt and fresh herbs.

Traditional dips made with sour cream and salty seasoning packets have double the calories and fat compared to my dip, which filled with natural flavor from fresh herbs.
