Ingredients

Directions

  1. Warm the olive oil gently — 15-20 seconds in the microwave or a few seconds in a small pan on low.
  2. Stir the Milagro blend into the warm oil to bloom the saffron; the oil should turn a deep gold. Cool 5 minutes.
  3. Whisk the bloomed oil into the yogurt and cream cheese along with the lemon zest.
  4. Cover and chill overnight — the color deepens and the saffron rounds out as it sits.
Hostess Tip: Serve with pita chips. The visible gold color is the whole sell here — don't skip the bloom step or it reads flat.
