Ingredients for Vegetable Dip

You probably all of these in your pantry right now! Grab them, mix them and watch it disappear!

Sour Cream: Full fat or low fat will both work. Mayonnaise: Again full fat or low fat mayo work perfectly. Dill: This herb is one of the best for vegetables. It just works. Chives: Gives color and flavor. Garlic Powder: Adds great flavor. Dried Onion: This is the perfect way to add the onion flavor without the intense bite. Salt and Pepper: Add to taste.

Making Your Healthy Veggie Dip

If you have time, allow the dip to refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to an hour to help the flavors really blend together.

Variations and Tips for Best Veggie Dip

Go Lighter: You can lighten up your vegetable dip by using light mayo and light sour cream. You can also substitute the mayonnaise with nonfat greek yogurt. It will be thicker but just as good. Dried Herbs vs Fresh: Fresh is always best, but in this dip dried works just as well. If you used dry you want to use slightly less amount than what is called for, for the fresh. Dried herbs have a more concentrated flavor. Add more or less to taste. Add Ins: Add in Bacon, parmesan or cheddar cheese, fresh garlic, sun dried tomatoes, or just add extra dill to make extra dilly. Leave it out: Usually I take this to a party or I serve it as an appetizer. I always try to take note of how long it has been sitting out so it doesn’t go past that “do not eat” stage. Veggie dip will be safe at room temperature for about 2 hours. Then place it back in the fridge for up to 30 minutes before getting it out again.

How to Serve Easy Veggie Dip

Serve it up: This dip of course is ideal with vegetables. Our favorites include carrots, celery, grape tomatoes, snap peas, cucumbers, peppers, broccoli, cauliflower and jicama. Other options include a variety of olives, radishes and raw sweet potato sticks. Other: But Veggie Dip is also stellar with potato chips, wheat thins, buttery crackers, pretzels and pita chips.

Storing Homemade Veggie Dip

In my opinion leftover veggie dip tastes better the next day. It allows the flavors to meld and really brighten. You can keep this dip in the fridge tightly covered or in a sealed container for up to 5 days. I do not recommend freezing the dip. Mayo and dairy do not freeze well.
