SUMMER CRUDITES WITH GREEN GODDESS DIP
Is it a dressing or a dip? Who cares? Green goddess dressing, the beloved California creation, doubles as a dip for a summertime crudite platter. The creamy concoction is studded with chopped fresh herbs and scallions, and it pairs particularly well with the season's bounty -- here, baby carrots and yellow squash, tender peas and beans, and little tomatoes -- but let the greenmarket (or your own garden) be your guide. This recipe originally appeared inMartha Stewart's Appetizers (Clarkson Potter).

Steps:
- Wipe the grill grates with oil to prevent sticking. Build a medium-heat fire. Your medium-heat zone should have embers 3 to 5 inches from the cooking surface.
- To make the dip: Cut the avocados in half and remove the pits. Cut again so the avocados are quartered. Keeping the skin on, coat the flesh sides with oil and grill each flesh side over medium heat for about 60 seconds, or until there are nice grill marks. Set aside.
- Coat the tomatillos and jalapeños with oil and grill over medium heat on all sides until charred but not blackened, about 5 minutes total.
- Remove and discard the skins from the avocados. Add the avocados, tomatillos, jalapeños, garlic, lime juice, basil, and salt to a blender and puree until very smooth. The dip can be made up to 2 days in advance and stored, covered, in the refrigerator.
- Cut the larger vegetables, such as fennel and jicama, into pieces that are slightly larger than bite size and keep the smaller vegetables, such as asparagus, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, baby carrots, and endive, whole. Arrange the vegetables on a platter and serve with the dip.

Steps:
- Directions 1. Combine Ingredients in a bowl until completely blended. Chill. A couple of notes on this recipe - If you are watching your diet, I recommend using Neufchatel cheese rather than low fat cream cheese. I have tried it with low fat cream cheese and the results were pretty disappointing. Whatever you do - don't go with fat free. You are better off skipping it all together.

GREEN GODDESS SPINACH DIP
Are you all as devastated as ME about the death of *Gourmet* magazine? I could weep. Luckily, I have a near-complete collection of issues going back to 'way before I was born, so I can live on those the rest of my life! This recipe (of course I've fiddled a little with it) was on the last page of the last issue, and even my husband, not usually a big fan of creamy dips, keeps getting it out of the fridge and eating it cold with pita crisps. Best served warm, though...

Tips:
- For a creamy dip, use full-fat sour cream and mayonnaise. For a lighter dip, use Greek yogurt or low-fat sour cream and mayonnaise.
- Fresh herbs are essential for a flavorful dip. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
- Adjust the amount of lemon juice and vinegar to taste. You want the dip to be tangy, but not too sour.
- Serve the dip with a variety of dippers, such as vegetables, crackers, chips, or bread.
- If you're making the dip ahead of time, cover it tightly and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Bring the dip to room temperature before serving.
Conclusion:
This green goddess dip is a delicious and versatile party appetizer or snack. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its bright green color and creamy, tangy flavor, this dip is sure to be a hit with your guests and family.
