Directions: |
Directions:Preheat oven to 350°. Cut each pita into 8 wedges. Brush with oil and sprinkle with ground cumin, chili powder, and kosher salt--all to taste. Bake for 8 minutes or until edges begin to brown. Turn off oven and let chips stand for 15 minutes or until crispy.
Meanwhile, put avocado, yogurt, lemon juice, vinegar, 1/3 cup chives, parsley, and salt to taste in a small food processor or blender and puree until creamy. Stir in most of remaining chives, reserving some to garnish dip.
To serve, spoon the dip into a small bowl and surround with vegetables and pita chips on a platter. |

Notes: I like this recipe because of the versatility. You can use it as a dip for veggies or chips, you can use it as a replacement for mayonnaise such as mixing it with tuna to make tuna salad, making a mushroom swiss burger and using this instead of mayonnaise or making a roasted veggie sandwich and use this with some hummus.
