Southwestern Dip Mix

[Granny Smith]

I made this the other day and it is so good! We're eating it with corn chips, but it would be good with vegetables, too. I adapted this recipe from one that Paula Deen had on her show.

Southwestern Dip Mix:

1/2 cup dried parsley flakes
1/3 cup dried minced onion
1/3 cup chili powder
1/4 cup dried chives
1/4 cup ground cumin
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 t. garlic powder

In a medium bowl, combine parsley, onion, chili powder, chives, cumin, and salt. Store in airtight container.

Makes about a cup of dry mix.

To prepare

3 tablespoons Dip Mix
1 cup sour cream
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 t. Worcestershire sauce, optional

In a small bowl, combine dip mix, sour cream, mayonnaise, and Worcestershire sauce, if using. Stir until smooth. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours for flavors to blend. Serve with chips or fresh vegetables.

Seems like it ought to make closer to 2 cups of mix, but I might seeing double since we been doing fractions this week.

It probably does. I didn't measure it, just took a guess. I put it in a container that I don't know how much it holds. It's about 3/4 full, but I already used some of it.
