- Greek Yogurt: I use full fat plain Greek yogurt.
- Chives: The fresh chives add a delicious mild onion flavor.
- Lemon: The lemon adds a little tartness and the perfect tangy flavor.

Step by step
- Combine the finely chopped chives with sour cream, Greek yogurt, Dijon, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt and black pepper.

Storage and prep-ahead dips
This creamy dip is a great make-ahead snack for football season or any party because it tastes even better when prepped in advance! As it rests in the refrigerator the flavors will meld together and the onion flavor from the chives will be brought out even more.
You can store this dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Since it is a dairy-based dip, I do not recommend freezing it.
Serving suggestions
This easy dip is perfect for game day or any party! Potato chips are a classic with this sour cream dip, but even pita chips or tortilla chips would be delicious with it! You could also serve it with sliced vegetable sticks such as cucumber, celery, carrots, and bell peppers. Serve this with some chicken wings and you have the perfect game day spread.
