Tips & Substitutions
For a tangier flavor, consider using Greek yogurt instead of sour cream. You can also swap the Salad Supreme seasoning with a homemade blend of garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Serving Suggestions
Serve Patsy'S Vegetable Dip with a variety of fresh vegetables like carrot sticks, bell pepper strips, or cucumber slices. It also pairs well with chips or crackers for a crunchy contrast.
