Baked Sweet Onion Cheddar Dip







What You'll Need



  • One quarter cups finely chopped yellow sweet onions (Maya, Vidalia, etc)
  • One garlic clove, minced
  • One quarter cup mayonnaise (Best Foods, Hellmann's, or Vegenaise)
  • One quarter cup plain yogurt or One quarter cup sour cream
  • One half cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
  • Tabasco sauce, to taste
  • 1⁄8 teaspoon curry powder, to taste (optional, but oh so good!)
  • 1⁄3 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1⁄8 teaspoon smoked spanish paprika or 1⁄8 teaspoon dried ancho chile powder or 1⁄8 teaspoon sweet paprika
  • One tablespoon chopped green onion, for garnish

How to Make It

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In a bowl, mix together the onions, garlic, mayonnaise, yogurt or sour cream, cheddar, and Tabasco (and curry powder, if using).
  3. Spread into a lightly pan sprayed small-ish baking dish.
  4. Top with Parmesan and sprinkle with paprika to taste. (Ground ancho chile powder can be substituted for the paprika, for a little more kick. I prefer the ancho.).
  5. Bake in preheated 350 degree F oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onion (scallion).
  6. Serve hot or warm with crackers, bread, or raw veggie dippers.
  7. Makes about 6 servings. I usually make a double batch!
