Vegan Caramelized Onion Dip

Vegan Caramelized Onion Dip

Here’s a recipe that will make you want to ditch those pre-made onion dips for good!

Begin by lightly caramelizing thin slices of a sweet yellow onion. Then after stirring in sour cream, mayonnaise, cream cheese, and spices, then devour with a big bag of potato chips.

Easy!

Note: While you absolutely can dig in just as soon as it’s ready, you’ll get the best results by letting the dip hang out in in the fridge overnight.

This will allow the flavors plenty of time to mix and mellow. I happen to know this firsthand because I first made this dip on the afternoon of this year’s Super Bowl and went ahead with serving it during the game. NBD. We devoured a bowl of it that night without thinking twice, but then…. the next day, it was even better!
