Dirty Beary - Yogurt-based Dip

The Student Activities Committee at my 340-student school exhibits exceptional skill in coordinating events in which anybody can participate. An annual favorite, Dipfest, is timed to coincide with The Big Game, hosted by the National Football League. Student teams are given $15 and tasked with creating a chip dip to do battle against other submissions in the campus dining hall.

My friend and I put this yogurt-based dip together and were surprised to find that it was beyond palatable. The popular vote is still out, but I back this recipe.

Can be served with chips, pretzels, fruit...

Here is where the namesake comes in. The dip needed a bit of color and some more texture, so we added gummy bears.
You can see them swimming around in the bowl.

Enjoy with chips, fruit, toasted bread, or whatever you have lying around!
