Seasoning – Dried dill, parsley, and garlic powder give chip dip a light, garden-like flavor. Feel free to mix in some fresh and healthy herbs from the garden. Dress it up by mixing in some taco or ranch seasoning and a dash of hot sauce!
Variations – This is where the fun starts! Mix in leftover cooked ground beef, bacon bits, shredded cheddar cheese, sliced green onions, chopped black olives, green chiles, or jalapenos.
