Why You'll Love This Recipe

If you love dips, then you will love this easy homemade Dill Dip & Veggie Platter! This creamy and light Dill Dip uses a few simple ingredients and makes a perfect dip for veggies, crackers, or chips. I love serving this with broccoli, carrots, and cucumbers.

My secret ingredient in this easy homemade Dill Dip is Meyer lemon paste. Most dill dip recipes call for lemon juice, but I feel like that can make the dip runny in order to get the right flavor. I recently discovered If & When Moroccan Preserved Meyer Lemon Paste (I made a Lemon Coffee Cake over Christmas with it!). And this lemon paste is a concentrated lemon flavor that is perfect for something like this where you want a punch of flavor, but not very much liquid. Trust me, pick up a jar, you will love it!

Tips for the Best Dill Dip

• Use dried dill, not fresh. The dried dill has more flavor for less, so that's why I use dried dil in this recipe.

• If you don't have lemon paste, then you can use lemon juice instead. You'll have to use more lemon juice than lemon paste as it's not as concentrated, so start out with 1 to 2 teaspoons and add more if desired.

• Make this dip ahead of time and store in the fridge until ready to use.

Why go organic?

You may be wondering why I push organic ingredients for everything, even savory and healthy dishes. Organic ingredients go beyond just health and wellness, and contribute so much to the taste and flavor of a recipe. So, if you think that you're making something healthy and buying fruits, veggies, or meats so maybe you don't need to spend the extra to go organic here – let me sway your thinking.

Organic ingredients are made in a more pure way, therefore using no additives, no GMOs, and minimal ingredients. This really allows the true ingredients to shine – and because of that their flavor shines through. Therefore, organic ingredients are more flavorful than their non organic counterparts. So, just because it's already a healthy recipe, or you're already buying good for you ingredients – it doesn't mean you can skip organic! Trust me here, and make the switch. Your body and your taste buds will thank you!

So, I highly recommend that you buy the best organic ingredients for this recipe! You can also shop my Amazon Storefront for all my favorite organic ingredients here. Tip – hover over each ingredient to see the name. And if you want to learn more about organic foods and the difference, read my post here on Food Labels and What They Mean.
