This zester is my kitchen staple!! I use it for everything from zesting a lemon to grating a garlic clove to grating a nutmeg!!

Simply mix together following ingredients:
- ¼cupmayo
- 2tablespoonsprepared horseradish
- ¼teaspoonsmoked paprika
Garlic Aioli
Not an authentic one, but nonetheless delicious!! Seriously, this’s my all-time favorite dip/sauce that you can always find in my fridge.
Spread it on a burger bun, or dip in artichoke leaves!!
You’ll need:
- ½cupmayo
- 1small garlic clovesgrated

Tahini Dip
Nutty rich tahini makes the most incredible veggie dip!! I’d never complain snacking on carrots and cucumber when I have this dip!
All you need are:

Make-Ahead Tips:
Each sauce can be made ahead. In fact, some of these dipping sauces arebest when prepared in advance, like garlic aioli. It helps the flavors get a chance to mingle together and get even more flavorful!
However, spicy ketchup or honey mustard sauce are great as a last minute sauce!
Yes, there’s something for everyone!!! Pick and choose as you will!
Hope you’ll try any (or all) of these sauces. And please let me know your thoughts, if you try them.
