Did you know that November is Diabetes Awareness Month? I honestly had no idea. I am embarrassed to say that, but I just didn’t know. I have been very fortunate to not have diabetes touch my life, or anyone close to me. I recently met someone who has it, but he manages it very quietly, so you would never know. My friend Carolyn, from All Day I Dream About Food is my closest real connection to diabetes. She is constantly in the kitchen doing amazing things, making over the most decadent dish to make it diabetic friendly.
Today many of us are getting together to help spread the word about Diabetes. Did you know that 25.8 million people (adults and children) in the United States have diabetes. In 2010, 1.9 million new cases of diabetes were diagnosed in people 20 years of age and under. It is a wide spread disease that can affect anyone.
Today Carolyn challenged us to share a recipe that was gluten free, lower in carbs, and didn’t use any type of sugar. I came up with this Greek yogurt dip. It is a little spicy, and you can never go wrong with chili and lime together. Serve with veggies, or your favorite gluten free crackers for a super healthy snack. You can easily serve this at any party, and no one will ever know that you are serving something healthy!
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (I used nonfat)
- 2 tsp chili powder
- ½ tsp Worcestershire sauce
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 jalapeno, chopped (seeded for less heat)
- ½ lime, juiced
- Combine all the ingredients in a small bowl, and mix until well combined.
- 1 pound Swerve Confectioners Style Sweetener
- 1 pound Swerve Granulated Style Sweetener
- Swerve spatulas
- Swerve measuring spoons
- Swerve dough scraper
- Swerve measuring cup
- Candles
- Muffing liners
- Swerve lunch box

The muffin liners just call out for making muffins. I’d make orange-cranberry ones.

Great information and cause to help in the fight against diabetes. I do a walk locally every year for children diabetes and am always shocked at the seemingly growing statistics.
This dip looks fabulous, Erin! Love the spice and that you made it with Greek yogurt! I really want to try Swerve for cookies!

Great post and the dip looks delicious! My hubby is a type one diabetic so I am very familiar and it would be wonderful to find a cure. Thank you for bringing awareness to everyone.
I’ve never seen Swerve in the store. I would dearly like to make vegan chocolate cupcakes using Swerve.

This dip is awful! I should have went to the original site (which I didn’t notice until after) for the recipe. The only change that this recipe has is the amount of yogurt and its half which makes the amount of chili powder WAY too much, very upset I wasted so much yogurt, which isn’t cheap!
I am sorry the dip didn’t work out for you. We liked the flavor and the heat the chili powder gave it.
