Whenever I need a last-minute appetizer or snack, I pull out a bag of frozen peas, cook them briefly to defrost, then pulse them with whatever flavorings I have on hand like garlic, curry powder and coconut oil. This dip is always a huge hit served with grilled bread or crudite.

Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin coconut oil

Instructions
- Warm the coconut oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until golden, 6 to 8 minutes. Add a pinch of salt and the garlic and cook for another 3 minutes. Stir in the curry powder and peas and cook for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool slightly.

To serve, transfer the dip to a bowl, top with a spoonful of yogurt and stir a few times to create a swirl.
