Day 17 – Onion Dip

Most dips call for Mayonnaise; I have a confession, I hate the stuff. It’s terrible for you, spoils within four hours of being left out and I just don’t get it. What does this mean….if you haven’t caught on yet, most, if any of the dips I’ve posted have Mayo. I avoid it like the plague and substitute sour cream or cream cheese. They aren’t that much better for you, but at least it’s not some slimy white blob of man made goo.

Off the chair….this dip is, again, a nice alternative to a traditional party dip.

Day 17 – Onion Dip

1 medium yellow onion, chopped
1 medium red onion, chopped
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
1 ½ c. sour cream
¾ cream cheese, room temperature
½ c. chopped chives
½ c. scallions
Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper to taste

Sauté both onions over low heat until caramelized, about 30 minutes. Cool. Mix in the next 5 ingredients. Add to taste the Worcestershire, salt and pepper, mixing thoroughly before adding more.

Serve with Veggie sticks, chips, crackers, great for a spread on a little ham sandwich, etc.

Enjoy!
