French Onion Dip

25 Minutes

This creamy French onion dip is out of this world, it’s made within minutes and originally made for my veggie subs but I decided it needed it owns blog post!

I use to eat jars and jars of premade onion dip when I was in college with my cousin and we honestly had no idea what onion dip really tasted like. We thought what came in the jar was it! Clearly we never knew how much flavor real homemade onion dip has, everything from the caramelized onions, fresh taste of chives and of course the creamy texture from the sour cream and mayonnaise.

With all these ingredients combined you will have the best French onion dip of your life, now of course the secret to my dip is adding soy sauce, I know what you’re going to say soy sauce?? Well soy sauce really helps to bring the flavor depth in the onions as it caramelize’s in the brown sugar. Trust me once you make this you won’t ever go back.
