This is a versatile recipe that can be used as a dip or a spread.

As the mixture sits, it will thicken up, so allow some time for it to rest between when you make it and when you intend to serve it. Serve it as a spread with crackers, wraps, or serve it as a dip with carrots and celery.

Makes about 1 2/3 cups
