Ingredients
  

1 cup plain Greek yogurt (choose full-fat or low-fat based on preference)

2 tablespoons creamy mayonnaise

1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon dried dill

1 teaspoon dried parsley

½ teaspoon salt (more to taste if desired)

¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Optional: 1 teaspoon fresh chives, finely chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Mix the Base: Begin by placing the Greek yogurt and mayonnaise into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Stir them together vigorously until the mixture is smooth and creamy, creating a rich base for your dip.

    Add the Tangy Elements: Next, incorporate the fresh lemon juice and apple cider vinegar into the yogurt-mayo mixture. This addition will provide a bright, zesty flavor that complements the richness of the yogurt.

      Incorporate Seasonings: Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, dried dill, dried parsley, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Mix thoroughly to ensure all the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the dip.

        Taste and Adjust: Take a moment to taste your dip. Adjust the seasoning as necessary; if you would like a more pronounced flavor, feel free to add additional herbs or salt to fit your preference.

          Chill: Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or transfer the dip to an airtight container. Place it in the refrigerator and allow it to chill for at least 30 minutes. This resting period is essential, as it allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.

            Serve: When ready to serve, give the dip a good stir to refresh its creamy texture. If desired, top with a generous sprinkle of freshly chopped chives for a pop of color and added flavor. Enjoy this delicious dip with an assortment of fresh vegetables, pita chips, or your favorite crunchy snacks.
