Greek Yogurt Dip with Jalapeno and Green Grapes




Ingredients
 
1/4 Cup Cream Cheese
1 3/4 Cup Greek Yogurt
4 tbsps. finely chopped red onions
1 de-seeded finely chopped jalapeno ( more or less according to your preference)
Approximately 1/2 Cup small green seedless grapes- halved
Salt for seasoning
 
Method
 
Blend the  softened cream cheese and Greek yogurt in a blender or mixer until smooth.
Add the finely chopped jalapeno, finely chopped red onions and halved grapes into the mix.
Season with salt.
Serve.
 
 
The Greek Yogurt replaces the Cream Cheese  and/or Sour Cream. The small amount added gives the 'binding' for the dip. One can avoid it entirely and chill the Dip before serving. The heat comes from the jalapenos. The tart-sweet grapes offset the heat of the jalapenos and the onions give the crunch.
