This homemade veggie dip is creamy, flavorful, and packed with a blend of dried and fresh herbs. It comes together in minutes and is made with simple ingredients like mayonnaise, sour cream, garlic, and fresh herbs, this dip is perfectly balanced.

Ranch is what eventually convinced me as an incredibly picky child to like salad. I would put a little ranch dressing on a plate and dip my croutons in it, as in literally no salad, just bread and ranch, but the love affair continues to this day!

While I have embraced salad, all kinds of veggies are really amazing, and creamy ranch dip remains my heart’s favorite thing ever, this garlic herb dip blows every ranch dressing out of the water!

Ingredients You’ll Need…

Head to the produce section and grab all the vegetables you need for dipping. These are the rest of the ingredients you will need:

  • Mayonnaise: The creamy base that makes this dip rich, smooth, and totally irresistible.
  • Sour Cream: Adds a subtle tang and lightens things up just enough for the perfect balance.
  • Dried Parsley: Brings a mild, earthy flavor and a little pop of bright herbiness.
  • Dried Tarragon: Slightly sweet herb with a hint of anise, this gives the dip that “what is that amazing flavor?” moment.
  • Fresh Dill: Bright, fresh, and unmistakably herby that makes the dip taste fresh instead of flat.
  • Fresh Basil: Adds a soft, slightly sweet herb flavor that pairs beautifully with the garlic and dill.
  • Garlic Powder: Gives you that bold garlic flavor without overpowering the dip.
  • Onion Powder: Adds depth and savory flavor that keeps every bite interesting.
  • Smoked Paprika: Just a touch for warmth and subtle smokiness.
  • Salt and Pepper: Simple but essential for bringing all those flavors together.
  • Veggies: The means for getting this outrageous dip into your mouth! Use whatever vegetables are your favorite.

I have a 5 minute limit on my Instagram so to say that I’m out of touch with things is a total understatement. But! My sister texted me one day that she’d sent more reels than dollars in her pocket so I’d better get on and watch them all.

There are a lot of fancy Super Bowl snacks out there, but pigs in a blanket will always be the first thing gone. Every. Single. Time. These are made with juicy Lil Smokies wrapped in buttery crescent rolls and baked until golden, then served with a simple homemade dipping sauce that takes them completely over the top.

They’re easy, nostalgic, and totally irresistible which is exactly what you want for a game day party when everyone’s grazing the Super Bowl appetizers in between plays in the big game.

What I Do Different to Make the BEST Lil Smokies

Listen, the truth is most people would choose a hamburger over a hotdog, but I am actually a die hard hotdog fan. I have been since I was a little girl. The first time that I had pigs in a blanket, I was so excited and then was completely bummed by the lack of flavor and especially by how dry they were.

I’ve learned that there are a few things you can do to make your pigs in a blanket better than everyone else’s. Number one always brushed the crescent dough with a little butter and sprinkle with flaky salt. It adds just that little touch of flavor and texture that will make your mouth water and you won’t be able to stop eating them, which is exactly what you want for your guests.

I love when we are throwing a party and people say they can’t stop eating fill in the blank. And my last tip always add a delicious dipping sauce and I’m not just talking ketchup and mustard. I’m talking a smoky honey mustard dipping sauce that is absolutely the best dip I’ve ever had with Little Smokies pigs in a blanket.

Why Pigs in a Blanket are the Ultimate Super Bowl Snack

Pigs in a blanket check every game day box. They’re handheld, crowd-pleasing, kid-approved, and easy to eat while yelling at the TV. You can make a big batch without much effort, they bake quickly, and they’re just as good warm as they are at room temperature.

Add a homemade honey mustard dipping sauce and suddenly this classic appetizer feels extra special without losing that nostalgic, party-food charm everyone loves.

Super Bowl Italian Sliders Recipe

Italian sliders are the perfect party dish for a Super Bowl get together! You start with slider buns and layer them with Italian deli meats like salami, pepperoni, and ham, then add melted provolone cheese.

For extra flavor, you drizzle some garlic parmesan sauce on top, then bake them until golden and crispy. To finish, load them up with your favorite sandwiches toppings like lettuce, tomatoes, pepperoncinis and black olives mixed with a creamy Italian dressing. These sliders are delicious, easy to assemble, and perfect for a crowd!

I’m going to fail you all a bit when it comes to the Super Bowl…we don’t watch it. It hasn’t always been easy, and it was an important decision for our family to not watch the Super Bowl. I know, don’t hate me, but Sunday is our one day set aside for our family and religion. However, we still enjoy a lot of good food (check out our Super Bowl Food Recipe Roundup for more ideas!), so I really wanted to step up a bit and provide our readers with more options for the big day. Food is everything for a football gathering, am I RIGHT?!

I decided to take a nod from our famous ham and cheese sliders and make a new version. Because of my love of chopped salads and the goodness of Italian delis I decided to jump into a fresh version of baked sliders.

What Do I Need to Make Italian Sliders?

Head to the deli and grab a few slices of your favorite Italian meats and some provolone. Then almost everything else you’ll either have at home already or you can grab it in the produce section. Here is everything you’ll need…

  • Hawaiian Slider Buns: You can either grab a pack of rolls at the store or make homemade Hawaiian sweet rolls.
  • Provolone: Grab it from the deli when you get your meats.
    • NOTE: If you aren’t a provolone fan, use mozzarella cheese instead.
  • Meats: Ham, Pepperoni and Salami

Garlic Parmesan Glaze

  • Butter: the base for the glaze on top of the buns
  • Parmesan: freshly and finely grated
  • Garlic Herb Seasoning: We love Johnny’s Garlic Spread, but any garlic herb seasoning will work great.

Toppings (Grinder Salad)

  • Mayonnaise: adds creaminess to the dressing
  • Italian Dressing: adds flavor
  • Sliced Black Olives: buy a can of sliced olives or slice whole olives yourself
  • Red Onion: I like them diced pretty small so they blend right in.
  • Shredded Lettuce: shred your own romaine lettuce or bu
