Ingredients Needed for the Very Best Hot Onion Dip
Cream Cheese
Light Mayo - you need to use light mayo in this recipe. I use Hellman’s. Light mayo will prevent this dip from tasting oily.
Onion - I used a sweet Vidalia Onion but you can use any white onion you have on hand. They all work in this dip!
Garlic - Garlic and onion just seem to go together!
Tortilla chips for serving!
Variations on the Very Best Hot Onion Dip
For a slightly sweeter, stronger flavour, you could caramelize the onions first by cooking them in a pan over medium heat before adding it to the cheese mixture.
Another delicious option would be to replace the mayo with Boursin cheese!
Or try adding some fresh herbs into the cheese mixture such as dill or basil.
