HOW TO MAKE HEALTHY FRENCH ONION DIP

In a sauce pan over medium-low heat, add butter or oil and melt. Add onions and sauté until golden brown and caramelinzed, about 25-30 minutes. Stir occasionally. If the onions seem to become dry add a teaspoon of water. Add in garlic and season the onions with 1/4 teaspoon of salt after the onions have been caramelized. Cook for another 3 minutes.
Remove the onions from heat and allow them to cool for a few minutes.
In a medium bowl, add the caramelized onion mixture to a bowl and stir in the remainder ingredients. Mix until all of the ingredients have been combined. Cover the dip and let sit in the refrigerator so the flavors can combine. Enjoy with chips, crackers or veggies!
