Common Questions
This dip can stay fresh for up to 4-5 days when stored in an airtight container in the fridge.
We don’t recommend freezing the dip as dairy doesn’t usually freeze well.
You can make a lighter version of this dip by using light mayo and light sour cream.
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.
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.

The best veggie dip! It is now my go to. Kids and adults love ❤️
Thank you for this delicious veggie dip recipe!! Since I found I have made it twice and the first time my husband didn’t even get any🤣 I guess I will share some this time!!
You’re very welcome. I’m glad you’re loving it.
Easy, tasty! Great balance of flavors! Made exactly as directed.
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!
Absolutely Awesome!! Didn’t Change a thing! Soo easy to make, and I had everything on hand. Thank you for sharing.
You’re so welcome, Teresa! I’m so happy you enjoyed that.
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!
This is my favorite vegetable dip! I love the addition of the lemon juice. It is so delicious!
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.
Delicious !! So simple and quick to make added a little more lemon for a zingy kick
