Caramelized Onion Dip
This dip is completely addicting and well worth the time it takes to slowly cook the onions. Best served with sturdy chips and crackers or crudités for dipping, it’s full of caramelized onion flavor and made extra rich ‘n creamy with help from Blue Plate Mayo. That’s the good stuff!
