Roasted French Onion Dip

ROASTED FRENCH ONION DIP
SIMPLE STEP by STEP:

Step 1:

1 sweet, yellow onion sliced thin / julienned

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon sea salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

Pinch red pepper flakes, more to taste and heat levels

Preheat oven to 425 degrees

Toss onions, oil and seasonings together in a mixing bowl until well coated. Spread onions in a single layer onto a foil lined baking sheet and roast for 18-25 minutes until they are tender, caramelizing and edges are showing a little char.

Allow to cool completely. (Set aside some of the onions to use as a garnish on top when ready to serve)

Step 2:

In a medium mixing bowl, with your mixer on low, combine the roasted, cooled onions with the following and blend until smooth and creamy:

1 8 oz. cream cheese, softened

1 ½ teaspoon onion powder

1 ½ teaspoon garlic powder

1 tablespoon Sriracha (more or less to taste)

¼ cup fresh green onions, finely diced—reserve some for garnish

Step 3:

Fold in the following -

½ cup low fat sour cream or Greek yogurt

1 cup good mayonnaise

Add salt and pepper to taste

Place in the icebox, covered and chill for 30 minutes. This will keep in a container with tight fitting lid for 7-10 days.

Garnish: Mix together the reserved roasted onions and green onions and place on top of the dip in the center OR around the edges of your serving dish.

ENJOY!
