Chips and Dip have always been one of my favorite party foods. It’s so basic, but it’s always the first thing I gravitate towards at parties. And, chances are, if you come to my house for a party, you’ll see potato chips and dip waiting for you too.
I make dip lots of different ways — everything from caramelizing onions to make an amazing onion dip to mixing sour cream with a dry dip mix packet if time is short. I tend to go for the easy dip recipes more, but here’s the cool thing — this sour cream chip dip is just as easy as grabbing a dry dip mix and it’s SO much more delicious.
Ingredients Needed for Easy Sour Cream Chip Dip:
- Sour Cream (16oz)
- Dried Minced Onion (2 Tablespoons)
- Dried Dill Weed (1 Tablespoon)
- Dried Parsley (2 Teaspoons)
- Garlic Salt (1 Teaspoon)
- Potato Chips or Veggies
Cooking Equipment Needed for Easy Sour Cream Chip Dip:
This Easy Sour Cream Chip Dip Recipe is made with 4 different dried herbs: minced onion, dill weed, garlic salt, and parsley. Once you have these herbs in your kitchen (perhaps you already do), you’ll be able to make up this dip for a fraction of the cost of pre-made dip packets.
What I also love about this recipe is that it uses a full 16-ounce container of sour cream. I’m not a fan of recipes that call for slightly less of a full container. Plus, you don’t have to get out measuring cups (but you will still need the measuring spoons). You can even mix everything up in the sour cream container and refrigerate until you are ready for it. If you are serving for a party, simply spoon into a serving bowl right before the party starts.
If you want to keep this dip mix on hand, you can mix up a larger batch of the dry ingredients only (simply multiply the ingredients for how many batches you wish to make). Then, mix in 4 tablespoons of the dry dip mix into 16-ounces of sour cream. You could also mix up the dry herbs to create homemade food gifts.

This dip was so easy and yummy! It was a big hit!
So delicious! I made this and took it to family dinner–there was not a drop left! Everyone loved it and raved about how delicious this was.

They did not have garlic salt, only powder which is the most offensive garlic flavor on earth, therefore substituted celery salt.
So delicious and easy! Will definitely make again!
I made this dip last week and making it again today. I loved this receipe.
Thank you.
In reply to Toots .
Wait I’m confused, you substituted celery salt for garlic salt because you only had garlic powder I’m confused.
Would this Chip Dip be for a Shrimp Dip minus the Dill Weed .. I’m trying to find a GOOD RECIPE for a
Creamy Shimp Dip !
Just tried this and it’s better than any store bought dip I’ve tried. Easy and ingredients are common condiments and spices. I substituted celery salt for garlic salt as I only had garlic ‘powder’. It worked great for a salty kick. I’ll be doing this again….and again!
I love this dip! I didn’t have garlic salt so I used McCormick’s Season All and it was AWESOME! I also added a bit more onion. I like that I can control the amount of salt used. I’ve made this several times.
This is one of my favorite dips. I used to make it for office parties, now it’s a big hit at family gatherings. Thanks for sharing.
