  7. Recipe Notes

    • SRFD recommends Sabra classic hummus for this dip.
    • We use our favorite plain Siggi’s Icelandic Skyr (yogurt) for this dip due to the silky, creamy texture and superior spreadability. It’s very similar to Greek yogurt with fantastic flavor too!
    • You can find roasted red peppers on the olive bar at your local grocery store, or jarred works well too.
  8. Serve with tomato salad, greek chicken kebobs and pita bread
