Reduced-Fat French Onion Dip
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cups finely chopped onions (2 small- to medium-sized onions, avoid red onion, which will turn the dip murky brown)
- salt
- pepper
- 1 cup low fat cottage cheese
- 14 cup boiling water
- 1 cup low-fat sour cream
- 12 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 14 teaspoon garlic powder
- Caramelize onions: Heat oil in nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Add onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook until golden, about 5 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently, until onions are deep golden brown and tender, about 20 minutes.
- Puree cottage cheese and boiling water in blender until no lumps remain.
- (I pop the water in the microwave on high for a minute or until I can see that it's boiling.)
- Add half of caramelized onions and blend until completely smooth.
- Transfer to a medium bowl, then whisk in sour cream, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and remaining caramelized onions.
- Season with additional salt and pepper if desired.
- Refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 3 days.
