What to serve with dill dip?
Good dippers include chips, broccoli florets, carrot sticks, grape or cherry tomatoes, butter crackers, pretzels, and cucumber slices.
This is an add-and-stir kind of recipe. There’s no cooking involved, which is great when you have a ton of other party preparations to get to.
Plus you can make it ahead of time and keep it covered in the refrigerator until ready to serve. For more easy appetizers try this salmon dip, an easy creamy spinach dip, and this cold buffalo chicken dip that is always a crowd-pleaser.
Instructions
- Soften the cream cheese by leaving it out at room temperature for a little while. Or, you can microwave it for just a few seconds.
- Careful not to go too far, though or the cream cheese will dry out on the edges. I start with 10 seconds, and stir. Then give it another 10 seconds and stir again. That usually does it.
- Use a bowl that is large enough that you can get in there and stir vigorously without everything spilling over.
- Add all of the ingredients to the bowl and mix well until everything is combined.
- Use a fork to get it going. Then use a rubber spatula to scrape the sides, and to get to the bottom to fold the dip over while stirring.
- Taste and add salt and pepper, if needed.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate until chilled. Stir well before serving.
- Garnish with a extra chopped dill, and serve with your favorite chips or fresh vegetables.
