Easy Sweet Vidalia Onion Dip Recipe

This is not your mama’s onion dip! Skip the powdered mix and tub of sour cream and create a homemade onion dip for your next party or gathering instead. It’s just 15 minutes of active prep time; the oven does the rest!

Vidalia onions are usually in season late spring through early fall so keep an eye out for them at your local supermarket. We don’t recommend using the typical brown or yellow onion you can find year-round for this recipe because they tend to be too pungent.

We’re all about shortcuts so if you haven’t sharpened your professional knife skills yet, don’t fret! Just throw your onions in the food processor and give it a few pulses until they’re finely diced. Boom—drop the mic!

We used shredded Monterey Jack cheese and grated Asiago cheese. Shredded are long, skinny pieces while grated is fine, almost like a chunky powder.
