Sour Cream & Fresh Dill Dip

Ingredients: 

• Sour cream – While this original recipe uses sour cream, this ingredient can easily be substituted for Greek Yogurt. 
• Real mayonnaise – Use full-fat products versus low-fat or fat-free to keep the flavor full. 
• Dijon mustard – Just a note not to accidentally use Dijon honey, or it will not taste the same.
• Half a lemon (about one tablespoon of fresh lemon juice)
• Chopped fresh dill – Also called dill weed, fresh dill is typically readily available at the store. You can use dried dill, but it will not taste as good. Conversion needs to be done on fresh versus dried, and the texture will change unless you allow proper time in the fridge for the dried herbs to soften. 
• Kosher salt and black pepper 
• Alternative spices – This dip can also be made with various changes by adding minced onion (or onion powder), minced roasted garlic (or garlic powder), and other fresh herbs to your liking.  

How to make an Easy Sour Cream Dip

1. In a medium bowl for mixing, add sour cream, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and fresh dill. Mix Dill ingredients well.
2. Season dip with salt and pepper.
3. Cover in an airtight container and refrigerate for 1 hour or overnight for flavors to mingle.
4. Stir creamy dill dip well before serving with fresh vegetables or crackers. 

Best Veggies for Dipping

• Any favorite potato chips, crackers, or pita chips.
• Pair this with baked potatoes, fish, or chicken kabobs.
• Fresh veggies for dipping like cherry tomatoes, sliced cucumbers, red bell peppers, and fried onions.
• Cucumber slices, cherry tomatoes, and red pepper strips.
• Peeled and chopped carrot, celery, cauliflower, broccoli, and mushrooms.

Turning dip into salad dressing is easy.

Add milk (1 tablespoon at a time) until desired texture is reached to thin out any thick dip recipe into a dressing.
