Instructions
- Place sour cream in a small bowl. Add dried onion flakes, onion powder, garlic powder, chives, and beef bouillon paste. Mix together very well until completely blended. Taste and adjust seasonings, if necessary.
- It can be enjoyed right away, but ideally refrigerate for 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the dried onion to soften a bit.
- Serve with potato chips and/or veggie sticks.

Notes
*A beef bouillon cube can be used in place of the paste, but it has a stronger, saltier flavor, so it’s not my preferred option. One crushed cube equals about 1¼ teaspoons, but I recommend starting with ¾ teaspoon, tasting, and adding more only if needed. Be sure to mix it very well so the dip stays smooth and not grainy.
