Ingredients/Variations

SOUR CREAM Regular or low-fat sour cream will both work great! Try plain Greek yogurt for a tangier skinny version if that’s what you have.

MAYO A touch of mayo gives this dip a creamy flavor. It pairs perfectly with the sour cream and seasonings!

SEASONINGS Dried chives, garlic powder, onion powder, dill, and salt & pepper all add to the flavor of this dip!

Feel free to mix it up by adding chopped chilies, jalapenos, sun-dried tomatoes, or chopped spinach. Even bacon can give sour cream dip a whole new flavor profile!

It’s perfect as a chip dip or better yet, bagel chip dip! Serve with fresh veggies, or use for dipping hot roasted potatoes!

How Long Does Sour Cream Dip Last?

Kept cold and covered, the dip should last up to 10 days in the refrigerator. No doubt it’ll be used up by then, right Before serving again, give it a thorough stir and add salt and pepper or extra seasoning to brighten up the flavors.

It’s not advisable to freeze sour cream dip because like most dairy products, once it thaws, it will become grainy.
