Ingredients
  

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain)

1/2 cup sour cream

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1 cup fresh cilantro, loosely packed

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (about 1 lime)

1 clove garlic, minced

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Optional: 1-2 tablespoons water (to adjust consistency)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Rinse the fresh cilantro under cold water, pat it dry with a paper towel, and chop off the thicker stems. This will help you get the most flavor and vibrant color in your dip.

    Combine the Base: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Stir well until you have a smooth and creamy base.

      Add the Flavors: Add the chopped cilantro, fresh lime juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Use a spatula or whisk to blend everything together until the dip is vibrant green and well mixed.

        Adjust Consistency: If you prefer a thinner dip, add water a tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency.

          Taste and Adjust: Give the dip a taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. You can add more lime juice for acidity or more salt to enhance the flavors.

            Chill and Serve: Cover the dip with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve chilled with tortilla chips, fresh vegetables, or as a sauce over grilled chicken or fish.
