carmelized onion dip

My little sister is 9 years younger and was obsessed with dips from the time she was small. Sometimes we waited forever to start eating while she created a concoction to add flavor to her meal. This became a thing in my family and we made meals around dips because it made Kerry happy.

While I was making this for a party, all i could do was think about how much she would love this. This is Onion dip on steroids. It is so yummy and will go perfect for any Sunday football bash or a platter for a party with any food that is dippable. Pair it with veggies, gluten free pretzels and crackers, even grilled chicken on skewers.

I also love the idea of packing it in the kid’s lunches with veggies for a snack. It is so versitle and filled with flavor and it doesn’t hurt that it is so much better for you than the store bought brands.
