Sometimes the easiest dishes are the best.  In this instance, it’s my Yogurt Dill Vegetable Dip which uses only five ingredients.  Just five.  Nothing more, nothing less.  

In our family, we make this dip frequently, especially for holidays when we serve a large meal in the afternoon and tend to skip a sit down meal at lunch.  Instead, we snack on appetizers and this dip takes center stage surrounded by various veggies, crackers and cheeses and a few varieties of olives.

The five ingredients in this recipe are those that I always have on hand and technically, it’s a healthier side for fresh vegetables.  The only ingredient you might raise an eyebrow at is Beau Monde, a seasoning salt.  

You should be able to find it in the spice aisle where you buy groceries and it’s referred to as Prime Rib Rub at spice shops like Penzey’s or my favorite, Savory Spice Shop.

Cucumbers, sugar snap peas and radishes are my favorite to use as dippers but definitely surround this Yogurt Dill Vegetable Dip with whatever vegetables you choose!  

Looking for other dips suitable for your favorite veggies?  My Pesto Yogurt Dip, Slow Cooker Salsa Verde Corn Dip and Creamy Baked Double Cheese and Spinach Dip are always well received!

Come Thanksgiving, Christmas or Easter you’ll no doubt find this Yogurt Vegetable Dip along our appetizer spread.  Young and old alike gravitate towards it until there’s nothing left but an empty bowl and a few unloved vegetables.  If you give this incredibly easy dip a try, you’ll no doubt see why it’s a family favorite.

    My kids will devour this as an afternoon snack to hold them over until dinner. Thanks for the tip about the seasoning!

    I'm making this dip for the veggie tray I'll have for my annual Mother's Day feast. I love dill dip and don't know why I've forgotten about it and seem to always use ranch.

    So, a few years ago, I inherited an old Spice Islands cookbook, which was the first time I heard of Beau Monde. I picked some up, and wouldn't you know, it appears to be identical to the seasoning used at the House of Prime Rib in SF, which I'd been stocking for years. How funny that other prime rib joints are using it--btw it's great on lots of stuff, especially eggs!

      Ironic, isn't it? I had to laugh as I remember the bottle of Spice Islands Beau Monde in my mom's spice cabinet from when I was younger. :)

      Thanks, Tara! I know that Penzey's has online ordering but also look for a brand called Spiced Islands as they carry it in a typical grocery store as well.

      Yes, this dip is perfect on a platter. I made some earlier this weekend and even my 22 month old was stealing veggies to snack on. A great healthy option!

      You're the sweetest - you can also make your own Beau Monde to have on hand. I believe I saw it at that amazing spice shop at the North Market as well. Darn, you might have to go back to get some! ;)

    I'm seeing a trend with the 5 ingredients. All the recipes are so simple. This one immediately peeked my interest because I'm always looking for fun dips to bring to a potluck. I have to confess. I've never heard of Beau Monde. I'm going to have to look for that now. Thanks for sharing!
