Dressed-Up Onion Dip
Instead of serving purchased onion dip, make your own. It's great for dipping chips and fresh vegetables.
Ingredients
-
1 medium fennel bulb
-
1 16-ounce carton dairy sour cream French onion dip
-
2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
-
2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onion
-
Snipped lemon thyme and/or snipped chives (optional)
-
Assorted vegetables for dipping such as sliced fennel, baby carrots, halved or sliced radishes, sliced cucmbers, and sliced zucchini
Directions
1.
Wash fennel. Trim off feathery leaves. If desired, chop enough of the leaves to make 2 tablespoons; set aside. Trim fennel bulb. Chop enough of the bulb to make 1 cup. Cut remaining bulb into strips to use for dippers.
2.
In a medium bowl combine chopped fennel, onion dip, red onion, and green onion. Serve immediately or cover and chill up to 24 hours. (Wrap and chill fennel leaves, if using.) To serve, spoon dip into serving bowl and sprinkle top with fennel leaves, snipped lemon thyme, and snipped chives.
3.
Serve with vegetable dippers. Makes about 2-1/4 cups dip.
