I really like using Greek yogurt as a substitute for sour cream for this healthy 7-layer bean dip You still get that tanginess but with a healthier alternative. I promise you too, that NO ONE will even noticed. My older sister is not a yogurt fan, and even she doesn’t notice the difference. She knows the secret ingredient but she could care less. She still enjoys the flavors.

What’s different about this Bean Dip?

The ground turkey and greek yogurt. That’s what really brings the flavor together. The two combined give that satisfying taste as if biting into a taco every time. So delicious!  Ingredients can also be removed or substituted. Sometimes, I don’t always add in the salsa, and I enjoy both versions. So if you would lie to customize the dip to your taste preference, be free to do so. It will still come out amazing.
