Dill Veggie Dip

This week was a “clean out the fridge” kind of week. (Can anybody else relate? Thanksgiving and holidays requires lots of fridge space!)

I found myself loaded with fresh veggies and a full container of Greek yogurt, among plenty of cheese. So dinner became a glorious hodge-podge of veggies and dip, crackers with cheese and hummus, kale chips, and a small fruit salad. Truthfully, it was delightfully refreshing and filling!

Many summer afternoons in my house are accompanied with veggies and dip. Although this was a wintery day before Thanksgiving, we needed the bright memories of warmer weather.

I sliced up the veggies and was ready to begin my dip. Usually I mix it together in a large bowl. But I have been dying to try out a dip in my new Vitamix Aer container. I dumped in the Greek yogurt along with the lemon juice and olive oil. I’ve found that this container works best when I place the liquids in first.

My favorite part about this veggie dip is the herbs. I mix and match flavors, dump and shake herbs, sprinkle and dash seasonings into the Greek yogurt. Because the yogurt is simply a carrier for fantastic flavors!

If you haven’t used seasoning salt or celery salt, consider purchasing some. I was cautious at first, assuming that I wouldn’t use these seasonings often. You’ll be surprised how easily they blend with other flavors!

Speaking of blending, this dip mixed together perfectly in the Vitamix Aer container. I ran it on medium for about 20 seconds until I visibly saw the ingredients combine. I swiped a carrot through it to note if the seasonings needed adjusting. As I suspected, it needed more dill! Another stir over medium speed and the dip was ready to serve.
