Ingredients
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup fresh basil leaves
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ½ cup Greek yogurt I used non fat

- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 TBS water
Instructions

1. In a small sauce pot, fill halfway with water and bring to a rolling boil. Dip basil leaves into the water to blanch, for 15 seconds each.** Place leaves on a few layers of paper towels, and squeeze to dry out the water.
-
2. In a food processor bowl, add all the ingredients, and process for 30 seconds or until everything is well combines. Scrape down the side and mix for 30 more seconds.

3. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to meld the flavors. Serve.
Recipe Notes
**Step 1 prevents basil from turning black after you cut it. This will keep your dip looking green, instead of disgusting :-)
