How to Make Veggie Dip

  1. Chop herbs – finely mince if using fresh herbs.
  2. Whisk together – In a bowl whisk the mayo, sour cream, dried parsley, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, dried onion, lemon juice, and fresh dill until well combined.
  3. To serve – Place dip in a serving bowl and set on a platter surrounded with your favorite fresh veggies.

Pro Tip: Cover and chill the dip in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes for the perfect cold veggie dip.

Common Questions

How long will this dip last?

This dip can stay fresh for up to 4-5 days when stored in an airtight container in the fridge.

Can I freeze this dip?

We don’t recommend freezing the dip as dairy doesn’t usually freeze well.

Can I make a healthier version of this dip?

You can make a lighter version of this dip by using light mayo and light sour cream.

What other ways can I serve this dip?

You can also enjoy this veggie dip with crackers, pretzels, tortilla chips, or even potato chips. You can also spread it on sandwiches or tortilla pinwheels.

How to substitute dry herbs for fresh herbs?

You’ll need a third amount of fresh herbs to dry herbs. So 1 tablespoon fresh herbs will be equal to 1 teaspoon dry herbs.

    Very good and simple, and easy to make. I did not have fresh dill which would have been so much better. We like spicy so added a little red pepper, yet was good with out it too! Thank you so much!

    This dip is so delicious!! I work night shift as a nurse (which is tough on the sleep and the waist line). So I have been making the dip for a veggie crunchy snack rather than turning to chips or candy etc. I started subbing the sour cream for plain Greek yogurt for a slightly healthier more protein packed version and I can’t tell the difference. Thanks for the amazing recipe!

    Super tasty!! Made it for our veggie tray and got asked for the recipe. I used oregano (slightly less of it) instead of parsley and Greek plain whole fat yogurt for sour cream since I didn’t have those items.
