The cream cheese base gives this dip its rich and velvety texture, while the mayonnaise adds just a touch of tang and silkiness. A little onion powder and garlic powder bring in the savory notes, and a sprinkle of paprika rounds it out with a little warmth. Fresh green onions add a pop of color and crunch, and a squeeze of lemon brightens everything up beautifully. It’s simple and perfectly balanced, pretty much all we could ask for.
