1 teaspoon dried parsley

½ teaspoon salt (to taste)

¼ teaspoon black pepper (to taste)

1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
 

Combine Base Ingredients: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, place the plain Greek yogurt and mayonnaise. Using a whisk or spatula, blend these two ingredients together until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.

    Add Flavorings: Next, stir in the apple cider vinegar and Dijon mustard. These ingredients will enhance the dip's flavor profile with a delightful tang.

      Incorporate Spices: Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, dried dill weed, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until all spices are evenly distributed throughout the yogurt mixture, creating a rich and creamy dip.

        Taste Test: Take a moment to taste the dip. Adjust the seasoning to your liking; feel free to add more herbs or spices if you desire a more pronounced flavor.

          Chill: Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or transfer the dip into an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to mingle and intensify.

            Serve: Prior to serving, sprinkle finely chopped fresh chives on top for an added burst of flavor and a touch of color. This dip pairs wonderfully with an array of fresh vegetables such as carrots, cucumber, and bell peppers, or can be enjoyed alongside your favorite crispy chips.
