Vegetable Dill Dip


I am going to open up and be completely honest:
I don’t get excited about eating raw vegetables.
I know, I know- they are so good for me. 
And I do eat them . . . but it doesn’t mean I have to love it.
However, if you serve some dip with it, I can eat a pound of carrots in one sitting. 
Some may argue that dip completely counteracts eating healthy vegetables, but it doesn’t take much of this flavorful dip to go a long way! Stick to a tablespoon or two and you will be just fine.
The recipe below is the recipe that my mom used growing up, but feel free to substitute any healthier ingredients (you could use fat-free sour cream, light mayo, or try plain yogurt or cottage cheese in place of the sour cream or mayo. It may change the taste and texture a tiny bit, but it will still be delicious!).
Vegetable Dill Dip
Ingredients:
1 cup mayonnaise
1 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon dried dill weed
1 tablespoon dried minced onion
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
Directions:
Combine all ingredients together. Cover and store in fridge for 4-6 hours before eating (I like to make it the day before serving it so that the flavors can really meld together).
Serve with your favorite vegetables (carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, peppers, tomatoes, etc) or crackers.
Makes 2 cups of dip- about 10-12 servings.

    just curious:
    do you only use Mayo or do you consider Miracle Whip the same?

    some people do, others don’t so would like your input.

  2. This is the recipe I got from my mom, who got it from my grandma, who got it from the supermarket she worked at YEARS ago ;) Awesome recipe. I have a jar of it in the fridge at all times, my boys call it “mom dip” LOL! I have been known to use olive oil mayo and fat free sour cream, and nobody notices a difference (and for anyone on weight watchers, that simple change makes this dip 1 point for 1 1/2 tablespoons if I did my math right!)
