Easy herb dip – great for your movie night
Everytime we have a movie night, we always have tons of snacks prepared. Chips, pretzel sticks, cheese, vegetables, fresh bread and crackers. Of course, all those snacks taste even better when you have a great dip at hand. For us, this quick herb dip recipe has become the number one choice for our movie night. It’s very easy to make and delicious. Garlic fans also get their money’s worth here.
This recipe is inspired by the herbal dips that are served as a side dish with the traditional fried mushroom pans at our city festivals and christmas markets. We love eating those, especially with a garlic herb dip and always buy them, when we get the chance. We thought that we absolutely have to try to recreate that dip! So we experimented with many different variations until we were happy with the recipe! 🙂
Easy herb dip as a perfect side dish to…
Of course, you can use this dip as a side dish to many other dishes, not only for snacks or fried mushrooms. It goes really well with potatoes or oven vegetables. Or you could use it as a base for a tarte flambée, which we almost always do lately. For this, you simply replace the normal sour cream with the dip and you have a new, delicious taste sensation. You see, having an easy herb dip in the recipe collection has only advantages, be it for a movie night or any other occasion :).
If you need more ideas for dips, take a look at our Mojo Rojo as a spicy dip. A cheese sauce for nachos is also very easy to make at home (recipe coming soon 🙂 ). Let us know which dip you chose and tell us your opinion about it! We are looking forward to hearing from you. 🙂
