Put down the packet mix and step away from the sour cream. This onion dip swaps the usual heavy base for low-cal plain yogurt, and you honestly won’t miss a thing. Finely chopped raw onion gives it that sharp, savory bite, while lemon juice, horseradish, and a dash of hot sauce add layers of flavor.

It takes about 15 minutes to throw together, then just needs time in the fridge to chill and let the flavors come together. That’s it. No cooking, no blending, no fuss.

Serve it with raw veggies, whole grain crackers, or baked pita chips for a snack that keeps your blood sugar steady while still satisfying that craving for something creamy and savory.

Pro Tips

  • Chop the onion as finely as you can so every scoop gets an even distribution of flavor
  • Give it at least an hour in the fridge; the yogurt mellows the raw onion and everything melds together
  • Adjust the hot sauce and horseradish to your taste; start with a dash and build up from there
