  • Substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream: This substitution is beneficial because Greek yogurt is a healthier alternative to sour cream, as it is lower in fat and calories. Additionally, it contains probiotics that can help with digestion.
  • Substitute cilantro for parsley: This substitution is beneficial because cilantro has a stronger, more vibrant flavor than parsley, and will add more depth to the dip. Additionally, cilantro contains more vitamin C than parsley, which can help boost the immune system.
