You can make a pretty good dip with natural yoghurt. Add whatever you want. It’s one of those foodstuffs, like scrambled eggs, and icecream, that you can add pretty much anything to and it will taste good.
Some ideas to get started:
Some ketchup. Stir that into the yoghurt (make sure you make a nice swirly pattern) and you’ve got an instant, healthy version of marie rose sauce.
Grated cucumber, crushed garlic, maybe a little fresh mint, fresh parsley, fresh dill or dill seedl, or cumin seed, roasted and ground.
Any chopped herbs.
I prefer nice sour live natural yoghurt, but a Greek-style yoghurt could be an interesting alternative. And if you really can’t get unsweetened live yoghurt then you could make up some kefir. See this post and the ones on the following page;

If you’re using it for a dip then Sandman’s idea of straining it through cheesecloth or muslin to thicken it up would be a good idea.
