This is an avocado-less recipe that can be served with veggies or low-fat chips. Very spicy so you may want to cut back on the hot pepper sauce or jalapeno peppers. Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds asparagus, cut into small pieces |
1 tablespoon fat-free greek-style yogurt |
1 tablespoon lime juice |
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro |
3 green onions, thinly sliced |
1/2 jalapeno pepper, minced |
1 tablespoon minced garlic |
1 tomato, diced |
1/2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
1 dash hot pepper sauce |
salt and ground black pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. Place the asparagus into a steamer insert and set into a pot over one inch of water; bring the water to a boil. Place a cover on the pot and steam the asparagus for 5 minutes. Transfer the asparagus to the bowl of a food processor and puree until smooth.
2. Combine the asparagus puree with the yogurt, lime juice, cilantro, green onions, jalapeno pepper, garlic, tomato, Worcestershire sauce, and hot pepper sauce in a large bowl; gently stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Chill in refrigerator until completely cooled.
