Caramelized Onion Dip
"Taken from the CHOW newsletter:
"The addition of goat cheese mimics the zip of Lipton’s famous onion soup mix. We’ve updated classic onion dip by swapping the pack of dehydrated Lipton soup mix for real caramelized onions and goat cheese—but the sweet, salty, tangy flavors you remember are all there. Reminisce with a bag of potato chips. This may be made up to 2 days in advance and refrigerated in a covered container; stir before serving." *Cook time is chill time*"

I had big expectations for this dip because of all the good comments, but... I felt that there was something missing once I put it all together. I added some lemon juice and about 1/4 tsp of a Roasted garlic and herb mix to blend it out! I love goat cheese, but even I though it was a bit overpowering. Sorry, there are other onion dip recipes that I would try before I came back to this one. -
Alli, what a wonderful dip you have here!!!! Mmm, it is so creamy and flavourful, I just could not stop eating it. lol The goats cheese and chives add such a yummo flavour to this which is balanced nicely by the sweetness of the roasted onion. Perfect! THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing another real winner with us! I cant wait to make it again! Made and reviewed for Everyday Is A Holiday Tag Game June 2010. -
Great onion dip. I was expecting a little bit of a tangy flavor from the goat cheese but the dip is very mellow. We will definitely make this again. Made for New Kids on the Block. -

Someone special recently gifted me with membership ~ I don't know who, but know they are special :D! Thank you! It is much appreciated....
My parents owned a grocery store when I was growing up, so there's my love of FOOD! My friends all love to drink, so there's my profession! I stopped bartending 5 years ago, when my son was born, but still 'do' private parties. DH and I did a 'Supper Club' for a while, but life kept getting in the way!
I am a SAHM, to a rambunctious 5 y.o....I LOVE cooking and collect cookbooks and anything kitchen related! I'm kinda picky, but will just drop an ingredient or make a sub, so I can still try a recipe.
I'm looking forward to many years of enjoyment here, and hope to participate in some events soon!
Thanks to everyone for posting such great recipes, and if you review mine, just know that I appreciate the time and effort involved in the reviewing process!
