A Few Health(ier) Sweet Dips!

I am a huge fan of anything I can dip something into, be it a sandwich into soup, pitas into hummus, crackers into cheese, pretzels into yogurt, etc, so I figured I'd come up with some healthier dessert options for fruit or crackers. I am a HUGE peanut butter fanatic, I am talking crazy levels here, as in I eat peanut butter at least once a day, everyday! So my first dip of course includes my favorite staple:

Peanut butter pudding dip:

* 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (I use plain because the pudding mix sweetens it up enough for me, but vanilla is delicious as well)!

* 1 packet vanilla pudding mix (not mixed, just the powder)

* 1 cup peanut butter

* Milk to thin to desired consistency

Combine yogurt and peanut butter until well combined. Add milk to thin to desired consistency. Mix in pudding mix until well dissolved. (You can also use a food processor to do all the work for you, but a hand blender works just fine too)! And I literally dip anything and everything into this, including a spoon and just eating it plain! Ideas are animal crackers, graham crackers, pretzels, strawberries, bananas, apples, celery....

I am sure you have all heard of or seen some version of my next favorite dip, the funfetti dip:

Cake batter dip:

* 2 cups Greek yogurt (I use plain since the pudding and cake mix really sweeten it up)

* Vanilla pudding, prepared with 1 cup less of milk than package directions (so only 2 cups of milk to one packet of mix)

* Milk to thin to desired consistency (I usually use at least 1/2 cup)

* 1/2 package of funfetti or white cake mix (you can use up to the whole bag if you prefer sweeter, personal preference here)!

Blend yogurt and pudding together, mix in cake mix until dissolved. Add in milk until desired consistency. Dip fruit, animal crackers, pretzels, vanilla wafers, graham crackers, etc and enjoy!
