Italian Vegetable Dip

Mirj's Note:

Mind-boggingly simple. If you are in a super hurry you can mix and serve the dip immediately, but the flavor is better after sitting for a while.

Super easy and really delicious. I made this a few days before the party and served it as the veggie dip. It disappeared in now time!Thanks Mirjam.

Excellent, excellent, excellent! I decided to make a last minute veggie dip for people to munch on prior to our 4th of July party...not thinking it was necessary. I was wrong...I had to re-fill the veggie's 3 times, just enough to allow every last drop of this dip to be eaten. It was LOVED. I made it with low fat mayo and low fat sour cream. I used an orange pepper and served this with cut up radishes, celery, carrots and cucumbers. There was not a drop left! EXCELLENT recipe!

Excellent! Like Tamaretta I didn't have a dressing mix so I used a palmful of Italian Dressing Seasoning Dry Mix instead and it was great. I used fresh oregano instead of dried in the mix and left out the italian parsley as I don't care for it and decreased the mayo to about a 1/4 cup. I also squeezed a half of lemon into it that I happened to have sitting on the counter. lol It definitely needs time to blend so the dried spices can soften up. Thanks for posting!
