Super Bowl Onion Dip

Pin It

No matter if you are cheering for the Rams or the Patriots, chips and dips always seem to be on the munchie menu for the Super Bowl.  Onion Dip is classic and easy, and once you taste this one, never again will you want to buy a prepared dip.  The taste difference is crazy good.

I found this cute stadium bowl at a thrift store, with its own little football to hold a dip.  It’s always been a hit on our Super Bowl days.  Any kind of chip is good for dipping, and veggies are great too.

The dip is easy to make and can be made ahead until kick-off.  All you do is mix a block of cream cheese with some sour cream, then add chopped onions sautéed in a little olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and add some green onions last.  Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes to blend the flavors, or make even a day ahead.

Enjoy the game, enjoy all the good food, and I hope your favorite team wins!

    Love it, and the festive serving dish, too. Love that it is simple with all fresh ingredients. No packaged dip with all the added chemicals. Will definitely make it.
