What You Need

  • 2 Zavor & Co gluten-free arepas
  • 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh dill (or 1 tsp dried)
  • 1/2 cup shredded or thinly sliced carrots

How to Make It

  1. Warm the arepas in the toaster on high, 2-3 cycles, then let cool for a minute.
  2. Stir the garlic powder and dill into the yogurt with a pinch of salt to make a quick ranch.
  3. Spread the ranch over each arepa.
  4. Pile the carrots on top and eat.

About This Recipe

Ranch started as a buttermilk-and-herb dressing on a California ranch in the 1950s and became America's favorite dip. A spoon of Greek yogurt gets you the same tang with a protein boost.
