Homemade French Onion Dip

I'll start by saying that I did not come up with this recipe, I found it on-line and modified it. You can make it low-fat or fat-free depending on the ingredients. Luckily, I had everything I needed on-hand.

  • 2 Large Yellow Onions (about 1 1/2 - 2 cups) minced
  • 2-3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 1/2 Cup Sour Cream (could do low-fat or fat-free here)
  • 1/2 Cup Mayo (I used a low-fat Dukes Mayo with olive oil)
  • 1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • Salt & Pepper

Heat the oil in a cast iron skillet on Medium/High, back down the heat to medium and saute' the onions for about 15-20 minutes. I turned the heat down to medium/low about 10 minutes into the cooking process. Place the onions in a small container and set in the fridge or freezer until cool. 

Mix the Sour Cream, Mayo and garlic powder in a mixing bowl. Add the cooled onions and stir until the onions are distributed throughout the mixture. Add Salt and Pepper to taste. Chill if desired. Enjoy!
