My easy Vegetable Dip recipe is made with simple pantry ingredients and no packets! It’s fresh, creamy, and absolutely addicting! Serve with your favorite raw veggies and watch it disappear.

A tray of Vegetable Dip makes my life easier.
I keep a container of this easy vegetable dip (or homemade ranch) in my refrigerator at all times so it’s easy to offer as a snack when my someone in my family is inevitably hungry right before dinner and can’t seem to wait.
With this dip we transform pantry staples into a creamy, flavorful homemade vegetable dip that literally takes 5 minutes to stir together. Skip the store-bought veggie trays and make your own–it’s more affordable nd tastes better.

can you make ahead of time?
Yes, you can make it in advance and store in the refrigerator. Keep any leftovers in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Enjoy!
Great flavor. I made with cream cheese instead of sour cream. Not sure which would be better. Thanks for your recipes.
