Spicy Tuesday 081418 – Summer Fresh Greek Veggie Dip – Dill

We think that once you make Mykonos Island Dip, you’ll return to it again and again as your go-to dip for crispy chips and crunchy vegetables. Summer’s best tomatoes and cucumbers add so much flavor to this dip.  Inspired by a beautiful greek island, you’ll have raving fans in no time when you serve up this easy-to-make easy-to-love dipper. Leftovers are yummy tomorrow in a pita pocket with a little shredded romaine lettuce.

Dill adds a lemony fresh zip to this easy, cool and creamy dip. Dill also has a significant amount of vitamin A and vitamin C, as well as trace amounts of folate, and  iron, and manganese. And dill has a good amount of calcium to help with bone loss. A great tasting dip as well as good benefits for your body!
