Notes

Adapted from a Whole Foods aisle demonstration.
  • Herb and spice mixture can be made in advance.
  • The garlic can be added prior to serving and the parmesan right before.
  • Because the holidays are upon us, I provided the full recipe. Feel free to halve.
  • The garlic herb oil dip will keep in the refrigerator for about a week.
