Eat Moar Broccoli 🥦
When it comes to getting healthy, your parents always told you to eat your veggies! Most people have a hard time finding ways to prepare them that make them tasty. A favorite pastime is dipping carrots in dressing, but it can be extremely calorie dense (240 calories for ¼ cup) and also has very little nutritional value.
Behold our concoction: creamy, zesty, high-protein, low-calorie, simple meat and veggie dip recipe. Not only are the ingredients easy to find in your kitchen, but you can feel GOOD about them and get a whole serving of protein!
Healthy, High-Protein Ranch or Veggie Dip Recipe
Total Prep Time: Basically nothing
Servings:
As much as you want… it's FRIGGIN YOGURT!
Ingredients
1 cup 2% Greek yogurt*
2-3 wedges of squeezed lemon juice
Everything But the Bagel seasoning (to taste, I like 3 dashes)
Pepper (to taste, I like 2 dashes)
*Green Mountain Creamery is my favorite as the strain is less tart than typical Greek yogurt (found at Costco) and perfect for veggie dip recipes. If using a substitute for this brand, make sure your alternative is 2-5% as the 0% is TOO tart for this recipe.
Instructions
Mix everything together. DONE!
My Favorite Things to Dip
Carrots
Cucumber
Chicken
Beef
Zucchini spears
If you say celery I’ll never talk to you again

Rules of a Healthy, Lazy Chef
When it comes to eating healthy, we all love the idea of nourishing our bodies and fueling our lifestyles, but it takes effort! Eating healthy is expensive… it takes too much time… it’s just too darn hard!
Well, fret no longer. This is the first recipe in our cookbook for people who want to be healthy but are just. darn. lazy. (like myself!)
Each one, like this veggie dip recipe, will not only be 5 ingredients or less, BUT it will also take 10-minutes or less. Also, as the offspring of Chinese mother raised by immigrant parents, it will also be economical ;) #makingmammaproud
