Spicy mango avocado yogurt dip is NOT your average healthy appetizer! It’s A NEW, TASTY way to eat veggies! Mango, yogurt, avocado, and a kick of spice from chilis makes this easy snack recipe a protein rich dip!
Thanks to siggi’s dairy for partnering with Cotter Crunch on this mango avocado yogurt dip! Now let’s DIVE right in. Cool?
5 words that make my life complete … SPICY MANGO AVOCADO YOGURT DIP! What? You were expecting something else? Haha, probably! But hold up, I have my reasons. You will see, and most likely agree!
First, let me ask you if you could describe summer in food groups and food descriptions, what would you say?
I’d say cool, refreshing, fruity, creamy, crisp (as in crispy vegetables or salads), spicy, tangy, ZINGY (my new favorite word), snacky, and light!
Doesn’t that sound like the perfect summer food to MAKE YOUR LIFE COMPLETE? Yep! Oh… and what a coincidence, this spicy mango avocado yogurt dip and vegetable/fruit platter just happens to be all those things. Yes, I’m clever.
But y’all, it’s true! We have entered into the season of snacking and all things refreshing! I say we embrace it! Much like all things in life, we need a season of bite size refreshments. Amen amen!
But here’s my dilemma. Yes, we snack away at veggies, fruit, and ice cream galore, but what if we were able to turn this snack-athon into a balanced “READY to eat” meatless. Or rather, a mini meal! That way we stay fueled and nourished while playing in that summer sun (okay I really need to get out more).
Anyway, this recipe has that covered. You’re welcome! And trust me, you’ll love how easy and… wait for it… REFRESHING it is! Balanced in healthy fats, protein, fiber, and so many nutrients! Ahhh! I hear the summer beach babe Gods shouting “hooooray! ” Kidding, kinda.
Actually, I’m more focused on all those busy mamas keeps their kiddos well fueled and hydrated with snacks ALL SUMMER LONG.
Yep, this snack is summer on a platter! Mango, yogurt, avocado, chili sauce, onion, tomatoes, cilantro, and spices all blended together to make one EPIC dip! The KEY ingredient that gives it that PROTEIN boost is the one and only siggi’s Icelandic yogurt y’all!
I’m using siggi’s 4% whole-milk Mango yogurt in this recipe, which makes it extra creamy, naturally sweet, tangy, and nourishing! You can also use siggi’s 4% plain or even their 2 % coconut yogurt. ALL work great to make this creamy yogurt dip!
By using siggi’s 2% or 4% yogurt, you get a thicker yogurt dip that is satiating and wholesome. Packed with protein, less added sugar, and made with just real food ingredients, including live cultures (probiotics). See, your bellies really will be happy and full.
Um, and did I mention no baking is required. Just a blender or food processor and an extra large dipping bowl to serve it in.
HOW TO MAKE SPICY MANGO AVOCADO YOGURT DIP
Ahh yes, spicy Mango Avocado yogurt dip is so versatile! Pair it with fruit, veggies, gluten free crackers, nuts, olives, etc. Oh, and it pairs well with big appetites, you know… for noshing.
Cool? Cool as a cucumber!
Alright, let’s dig in. I mean “dip” in.

Thank you friend!
Alexa
Love that shot of all the goodies that go into this dip. And love the idea of making dinner one big plant-based snack fest. Wonder if a mayo would work in place of the yogurt? Or maybe an unsweetened non-dairy?
Cotter Crunch
I would try with a non dairy yogurt first. Keep me posted!
Laura @ Sprint 2 the Table
I love fruit in savory dishes. We eat mango coated in Tajin a lot in SoCal. This dip sound like perfection! I with I could make it and take it with me on a plane… it would be the perfect snack while we’re playing ball in AUSTIN next week!

I am 100% making this! And this veggie bowl is such goals!
Cotter Crunch
Woohoo please do!
