Creamy Cilantro & Pea Chutney

by | Updated: April 27th, 2017

If you’re looking for something a little different to nosh on, pair this savory chutney with baked pita chips for a crunchy, Indian-inspired snack. This bright-green sauce is made from fresh green peas, Greek yogurt, aromatic seasonings and crushed red pepper (for an added kick if you so choose) to fire up your taste buds in the tastiest way possible. Make it vegan by simply replacing Greek yogurt with dairy-free yogurt. Just store it in the fridge to chill and serve! We’re also loving it with these easy-to-make crispy Indian-inspired egg pakoras.
