Moving Right Along…..

While we had such a great time together for Thanksgiving…and we definitely did!

 (It was one of my most favorite Thanksgiving celebrations ever!) My mind can only focus if it's moving ahead! I wish it wasn't that way! I want to learn to "stop and smell the turkey!"

But... after making my contributions of Broccoli casserole and Pumpkin Cheesecake for our Thanksgiving dinner….my brain could only focus on all of the yummy things to make for our Iron Bowl Celebration with all of our kids! And what a celebration it was!

 In that one second…we saw a second miracle take place! And boy was it glorious!

 As was this incredible Caramelized Onion Dip that I got from my favorite publication…Cuisine At Home. 

I'm so glad my mother gave me this subscription! It is truly my favorite cooking magazine ever! 

Give this yummy dip a try for your next holiday party! It will definitely be a hit!

Caramelized Onion Dip

Cook:

4 Cups onions diced…about 2 large onions

Large pinch of salt and sugar

2 T olive oil

1/2 T dried thyme

2 tsp. minced garlic

2 T brandy

Cook onions with salt and sugar in the olive oil until well browned and soft, about 30 minutes on medium heat. Stir often…add thyme and garlic and cook until fragrant…about 1 more minute. Deglaze with the brandy, scraping up any browned bits. Let onions cool slightly.

Combine:

1 pkg. cream cheese, softened

1 Cup sour cream

1/2 C mayo

1 T lemon juice

1-2 t Worcestershire sauce

1/2 C sliced green onions

Tobasco sauce to taste

Combine the cream cheese, sour cream, mayo, lemon juice and worcestershire sauce. Add cooled onion mixture, 1/2 C green onions and season with salt and tobasco if desired. Garnish dip with additional green onions. Serve with favorite chips or veggies.

Let sit at least 24 hours before serving for best flavor!

I hope you enjoyed a wonderful time with family and friends for Thanksgiving! I can hardly wait for all of the Christmas festivities to begin! ( I just need to get organized!) 

Let me know your thoughts on this dip! It will be a huge hit!
