It is perfect for a quick and healthy snack and the excuse to use up your zucchini / courgette bounty. It is suitable for people following a vegan, gluten-free or keto diet. Post includes Weight Watchers points.
Like all recipes this yoghurt, mint and Zucchini Dip came about from a simple thought process. I have waaaaaay too many lovely zucchinis (courgettes) – tick. I have tons of mint – tick. As for coconut yoghurt……….. you kinda get the gist.
This great thing about this Courgette Dip is that it requires on 5 main ingredients (Zucchini, mint, lemon, olive oil and coconut yoghurt). The others are completely optional but add that little extra something to the dip that take it fromgood to WOAH.
Vegan Dip
This is a light and refreshing dip that will help use up your zucchini bounty. I have kept it vegan by using coconut yoghurt. But feel free to use other yoghurts like soya yoghurt too.
