3 Ingredient French Onion Dip

This dip recipe is not only super tasty, it’s so easy! It’s ready to serve in less than 5 minutes.
I’d be willing to bet that you’ve made dip with sour cream before. Sour cream combined with ranch seasonings is one of those “go-to” dips for many people.
But when you add in a nice helping of cream cheese, you end up with a rich, silky dip that really makes the most of anything you serve with it.
This simple and scrumptious dip is a fan-favorite at any sports event from tailgating to Super Bowl parties. Serve it up in a football shaped bowl surrounded with crackers, chips, or fresh vegetables.
Even better, serve the whole thing on one of those trays that look like a football stadium.
Just be sure to have extra ingredients on hand. You don’t want to be running out of snacks just as the game is getting good. Sports fans can get scary!
Perfect for football and The Big Game parties, especially when you serve it in a football shaped platter!

Can I make onion dip with low-fat cream cheese and sour cream?
Yes, you can definitely use low-fat cream cheese and sour cream to make our french onion dip. And it will still be good.
It will be a little less thick, so if texture is something that is important, you can also try mixing half regular and half low-far sour cream and / or cream cheese.
You may also substitute Greek yogurt for the sour cream too if you’re looking for other alternatives.
