"Learn to Love Veggies" Tip

Many kids are big dip fans so blending veggies into a dip is a great way to introduce them to veggies in a form other than simply raw or cooked.

You're sure to love this sweet and creamy dip filled with carrots! You can choose a few different dippers to see which combo you like best. Fruit, pretzels, or even veggies like celery and carrots sticks are delicious in this dip.

Ingredients

  • 2 to 3 large carrots
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt or non-dairy alternative
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
  • 1 tablespoon fresh orange juice, optional
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Dippers such as sliced apples, carrot sticks, celery, pretzels, and graham crackers

Instructions

  1. Peel carrots then cut into a small dice. Measure 1 1/2 cups diced carrot and add to a small pot. Cover carrots with water and simmer on the stove top until very soft, about 8 minutes.
  2. Drain carrots really well and place on a paper or kitchen towel to dry. Set aside to cool or place in the refrigerator to speed up the process.
  3. Once carrots are cool, add carrots and remaining ingredients to a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides once or twice to make sure everything is well incorporated. Scoop dip into a bowl and sprinkle a little extra cinnamon on top, if desired. Serve chilled.
