I am a little excited to share this recipe with you all. I tend to stay away from dips since most are served with carb heavy crackers but then I said duh, there are so many substitute options for crackers! Am I right? Of course! I served mine on top of cucumber slices. You could also pair with some celery sticks or carrots. Of course, serve with crackers for those not trying to watch their waistline! 😉
For the original recipe you can go here. She also has a great tutorial on how to make caramelized onions. Hers looked so much better than mine. I was multitasking a little too much on this one. Oops.
Ingredients:
1 cup caramelized onions, cooled (about 2-3 onions) ~ 6 slices bacon, diced – cooked crisp ~ 1 tsp cider vinegar ~ 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper ~ 1 3/4 cups sour cream (or Greek yogurt or a combination of the two) ~ Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Directions:
Caramelize your onions in a skillet and allow to cool. Stir all remaining ingredients together in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Chill for 20 minutes before serving. This should last up to 3 days or 30 seconds depending on your level of hungraaay!!
Since I really like my readers I bring you a second “recipe”. This light and refreshing drink is low in carbs so it was a great pairing with the above dip. It was really only two ingredients too! Easy peasy, right?!
I used the Sugar Free Lime Margarita mix Walmart brand but I think Crystal Light sells this flavor too. Mix one packet with 2 quarts of water. Add to a glass some ice and a shot of Smirnoff Orange (or other citrus flavored Vodka) and top off with the Lime Margarita mix. It was so light and refreshing so watch out or it will knock you on your keister! It will sneak up on you! Enjoy!

that dip sounds amazing! you post the best recipes 🙂
Thanks!! It was so good!! It is relatively low carb too! Win-win!
OK, that dip seriously has my mouth watering! Definitely have to try!! Thanks for linking up with Ash and I!
Thanks it was really yummy! Hope you try it!
I loveeee dip! And I love chips too, but those aren’t as good for you as veggies, ha! I try to incorporate as many veggies with dip as I can. This recipe looks delish!! Thanks for linking up with Jess and me!
Veggies are so much healthier, even though I miss chips!
I’m hungry and should not be reading this post! LOL! I could eat a whole bowl of that dip right now!
It was hard not to eat the whole thing. I portioned it out to help but it was calling my name. 🙂
It must be a dip kind of day!
OMG, yes, please!
Haha! It was so good! Can’t really go wrong with Bacon! 🙂
Never!! 🙂
I can’t wait to try the citrus lime margarita!
We need to have it at our next girls night! How about a sleepover at my house? I’ll sent some dates.
The dinner does seem like an odd combo haha, but I can see how it would taste amazing.
I want bacon now 😉
I think I could live on Bacon!! It was a weird combo but was shockingly good!
