Ingredients

• 2 cups Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Whey protein powder (unflavored)
• 3 large Garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon Extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

Begin by peeling the garlic cloves. If you prefer a more subtle garlic flavor, you can reduce the amount of garlic used.

Step 2

Using a garlic press or a fine grater, finely mince the garlic cloves into a small bowl. Alternatively, you can use a mortar and pestle to mash the garlic into a paste.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and unflavored whey protein powder. Stir until the protein powder is fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic to the yogurt and protein mixture. Stir until the garlic is evenly distributed.

Step 5

Next, add the extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice to the bowl. These ingredients will add flavor and help to smooth out the texture of the yogurt.

Step 6

Finely chop the fresh dill and add it to the bowl. You can substitute with other fresh herbs such as parsley or cilantro if desired.

Step 7

Season the yogurt mixture with salt and black pepper according to your taste preferences. Start with the recommended amount and adjust as needed.

Step 8

If the yogurt is too thick for your preference, add water a teaspoon at a time until you reach the desired consistency.

Step 9

Once all the ingredients are combined, taste the yogurt and adjust seasoning or lemon juice as needed.

Step 10

Transfer the High Protein Garlic Yogurt to a serving dish or airtight container for storage. It can be served immediately or chilled for an hour to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 11

Serve as a delicious dip with vegetables, bread, or use as a spread in sandwiches or wraps.
