“Irresistible Olive Oil Bread Dip – A Simple Yet Flavorful Appetizer!”

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar (if using), oregano, basil, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and freshly cracked black pepper. Stir until well combined.
Add Parmesan Cheese (Optional):

If you like a cheesy depth to your dip, stir in the freshly grated Parmesan cheese. This step adds a lovely savory element to the olive oil mixture.
Garnish and Serve:

Transfer the dip to a shallow serving dish or small bowl.
Sprinkle the top with fresh parsley for a burst of color and a fresh flavor.
Serve with Fresh Bread:

Serve the dip immediately with warm, crusty bread, breadsticks, or even sliced baguette. You can also pair it with vegetables like carrot sticks or cucumber slices for a healthier option.
