The Scoop
This is, hands down, the dip that shows up once, and suddenly you become the hostess with the mostess. Everyone is hovering in your kitchen with crackers and celery sticks, waiting for you to bring out the bowl. It’s so smoky, creamy, and fresh that it's practically begging for one more bite. And then another.
If you have a bunch of celery sticks, carrots, or crackers around, this one is dangerously good.
