Notes

Can I use different spices? Yup, feel free to use anything that goes well with lemon, like garlic powder or cajun seasoning. You can also add a little spice with cayenne pepper or hot sauce.

Can I use a food processor to make it? Yes! You might need to scrape down the sides a bit more, but a food processor or high powered blender both work great.

Storage: This dip will last for up to 4 days in the fridge in an airtight container. I don't recommend freezing it.
