This onion dip is a hit with all of my friends. Sometimes I throw in some fresh herbs from the garden too. They can't believe it isn't made with sour cream because it tastes great! For really low fat, use nonfat plain yogurt. Perfect for dipping potato chips or veggie sticks.

Tips:

  • Cook the onions slowly over low heat. This will allow them to caramelize and develop a deep, rich flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the onions. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Use a good quality mayonnaise. This will make the dip creamy and flavorful.
  • Add some sour cream or yogurt to the dip. This will help to balance out the richness of the mayonnaise and make the dip lighter.
  • Season the dip to taste. Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
  • Serve the dip with your favorite chips, vegetables, or crackers.
