French Onion Dip

French onion dip is tangy and savory. It requires only two ingredients and is made in under a minute making it the perfect chip dip!

These easy yet flavorful dip is party perfection. I like paring with a hearty potato chip such as ruffles or kettle chips. That salty, tangy, and savory combination hits the spot every time. Want a healthier dipping option? Try pairing with Veggie Cup Appetizers. You could also add EASY Hummus to the spread.
