Ingredients
  

1 cup plain Greek yogurt

2 tablespoons mayonnaise

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon dried dill weed

1 teaspoon dried parsley

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

¼ teaspoon smoked paprika (optional, for a smoky kick)

1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

In a medium mixing bowl, begin by adding 1 cup of plain Greek yogurt and 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise. Use a whisk or spatula to combine them until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

    Next, incorporate 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, along with 1 teaspoon each of garlic powder and onion powder. Stir the mixture well until all ingredients are fully blended.

      Gradually add in 1 teaspoon of dried dill weed, 1 teaspoon of dried parsley, ½ teaspoon of salt, ½ teaspoon of black pepper, and if desired, ¼ teaspoon of smoked paprika for an extra layer of flavor. Mix everything thoroughly, ensuring the herbs and spices are evenly distributed throughout the dip.

        Taste your dip, and if you feel it needs a bit more flavor, adjust the seasoning by adding a pinch more salt or garlic powder to suit your preferences.

          Once seasoned to your liking, transfer the dip to a serving bowl. For a touch of freshness, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of freshly chopped chives over the top as a garnish.

            To enhance the flavors, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving. This chilling time allows the ingredients to meld together beautifully.

              When ready to serve, present the dip chilled alongside an assortment of fresh vegetables, crunchy chips, or tasty crackers for dipping.
