Caramelized Onion and Blue Cheese Dip

Since the State of Alabama was shut down by our 6-9 inches of snow, there was a whole lot of nothing going on outside.  Boredom quickly set in so what else was left to do except snack.  Luckily,  I had bought some Ruffles and Cheese It Grooves the other day.  After sitting here watching my “show”, Paramparca over the internet for a couple of hours, I decided to get off my behind and make my yummy Caramelized Onion and Blue Cheese Dip to go with those Ruffles and Cheese It’s. By the way, Paramparca is a Turkish mini-series and it is so exciting.  Anyway, back to my story.  I knew I had some Blue Cheese in the fridge so I decided to try out something that I had been thinking of trying for a while Caramelized Onion and Blue Cheese Dip.  This dip is by far so much better than your average French Onion dip that you can buy in the store.  And it is way better for you.  No chemicals here.  Just onions, olive oil, sour cream, yogurt, blue cheese, salt and a squeeze of lemon juice.  This would also be a great alternative to mayonnaise on a chicken or roast beef sandwich.  The three of us, my daughter, her boyfriend and myself finished it all.  I will definitely be on my food list for my next party.  Try it out for yourself, you won’t be disappointed.
