I’m always looking for healthier alternatives when it comes to snacking. Even though I’m not over-weight, I do count my calories and watch what I eat. I try to make healthy choices whenever I can. Today’s guest-post recipe is just 45 calories per half-cup serving. The dip is excellent with vegetable sticks, such as carrots, celery, and jicama, or with low-sodium, baked chips.
Edamame and Broccoli Dip Recipe
1 pound Shelled Edamame (soy beans) cooked
1 pound broccoli florets over-cooked
1/4 cup plain yogurt, fat free
3 tablespoon onion chopped
1 tablespoon garlic chopped
1/4 teaspoon black pepper ground
4 tablespoon lemon juice
3 tablespoon basil chopped
2 teaspoon Pritikin® All-Purpose Seasoning*
In a food processor puree beans, broccoli, onion and garlic, puree for 2 minutes. Add sour cream, yogurt, basil, black pepper and blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust taste with lemon juice. I like to whip it up, put into a bowl and refrigerate for 2-3 hours to allow all of the flavors to infuse. You’ll want to keep any leftovers refrigerated.

This looks and sounds good. I likw all the different flavors it contains.
I notice that you mentioned jicama — got any tips or tricks to make cutting this easier??
I happended to have all these item and will make this sometime this week.
What is Pritikin
This is a different sort of recipe. I think I would like it since I do like edamame and snack on them all the time so it would be fun to have a different way to use it.
I like soybeans and broccoli. This sounds like something just for me. Thank you for the recipe.
That would be interesting to try. I like the onions and garlic.
