Notes

This dip is so easy to customize! Get creative with my favorite spices and seasoning blends to add your own layer of flavor.
There are so many fun variations for this dip! Add chopped roasted red peppers, sliced jalapenos, chopped bacon or even a little spinach.
Display it in a hollowed out bread bowl, hollowed cabbage, pepper or squash.

Storage Notes

Never leave sour cream at room temperature more than two hours. This dip keeps well refrigerated for up to five days, stored covered in an airtight container. Don't store sour cream in the freezer, as it changes the consistency.
