      Great question! If you have it in a sealed container, it should be fine in the fridge for 3-5 days.

      Yes, it would totally work. I don’t have experience with any to speak to, but I imagine it would be pretty good. Thanks for asking!

    This is one of those recipes that sound weird but the ingredients are great together. I have made it for years and it is always a big hit with my guests. I am interested in trying the cream cheese or greek yogurt as a substitute for mayonnaise.

    I’ve had this dip before and it is delish. I wanted it to be moldable so I used approx 2-3 Oz. of softened cream cheese and 2/3 cup mayo instead of the full cup of mayo. I mixed everything else as directed. I lined an oval container with plastic wrap.and packed mixture inside. I refrigerated well and then turned onto an attractive plate. Topped with raspberry jam, fresh raspberries, and finely sliced green onion.

    I make the same recipe but instead of the raspberry jam, which I think may be a little too sweet, I spread a jar of red pepper jelly on top. It is absolutely amazing! It is sweet with a little heat. It will blow your mind!

    I wonder if anyone has made this with sour cream or maybe 1/2 C sour cream, 1/2C mayo or possibly cream cheese? I’m having a hard time getting past the 1 cup of mayonnaise. Seems like it would be overpowering and taste too much like mayonnaise.

      Hi, I can understand that it seems like a lot. It turns out great, I promise! But I haven’t experimented with your suggestions, but I’d love to hear how they turn out if you do. You could substitute greek plain yogurt, that would be my suggestion. Make sure to let us know how it turns out!
