Baked Sweet Onion Cheddar Dip

Baked Sweet Onion Cheddar Dip

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups finely chopped yellow sweet onions ( Maya, Vidalia, etc)
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise ( Best Foods, Hellmann’s, or Vegenaise)
  • 1/4 cup plain yogurt or 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 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
  • 1 tablespoon chopped green onion, for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a bowl, mix together the onions, garlic, mayonnaise, yogurt or sour cream, cheddar, and Tabasco (and curry powder, if using).
  • Spread into a lightly pan sprayed small-ish baking dish.
  • 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.).
  • Bake in preheated 350 degree F oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onion (scallion).
  • Serve hot or warm with crackers, bread, or raw veggie dippers.
  • Makes about 6 servings. I usually make a double batch!
