This creamy roasted onion dip is a healthy yet irresistible take on my childhood favorite chip dip. It's made with fresh ingredients like roasted onions, garlic, Greek yogurt, and lemon juice. It's an easy dip recipe you can make ahead of time, and it's perfect for party season!
Ingredients
3lbs.onions, sliced thin
6clovesgarlic, leave the skin on
2tablespoonsolive oil
2teaspoonssea salt
2 ½cupsthick yogurt
2tablespoonslemon juice
1pinchof cayenne
1teaspoonblack pepper
Instructions
Turn your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and line an 18x13" baking sheet with parchment paper.
Add the sliced onions and the garlic to the baking sheet and toss with the oil, salt, and 2 tablespoons of water. Tuck the garlic under some of the onions (to protect them from the heat) then roast for 1 ½ hours, tossing the onions halfway through. Remove them from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.
Squeeze the garlic from the skin and add it and the onions to a food processor. Process on low until a chunky paste forms then transfer to a medium-sized bowl.
Add the yogurt, lemon juice, cayenne, and pepper to the bowl and mix well. Serve with your favorite dippers!
2 ½ cups thick yogurt, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 pinch of cayenne, 1 teaspoon black pepper
Notes
You can dig into this dip right away (it's delicious!) but the flavors come together best after you let it rest for a couple hours in your fridge.
