VIDALIA SWEET ONION DIP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Stir the mayonnaise, Swiss cheese, Parmesan cheese, Vidalia onion, and hot sauce together in a casserole dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes. Allow to cool 10 minutes before serving.

CARAMELIZED ONION DIP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and thyme and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are very soft and brown, about 20 minutes, reducing the heat to medium-low if the onions brown too quickly. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
• Meanwhile, stir together the sour cream, mayonnaise and Worcestershire sauce and season with salt and pepper. Add the onion mixture and stir until well combined. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour or up to overnight. The dip can be made up to 3 days ahead and refrigerated in an airtight container. When ready to serve, scatter the chives over the top and serve with potato chips.

SWEET ONION AND THYME DIP

Steps:

• Cook onion in oil in a large frying pan over medium heat, stirring often, until golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Add chopped thyme, salt, and pepper and cook another minute. Let cool. Stir in yogurt and transfer to a bowl. Chill at least 30 minutes (it's even better the next day). Garnish with thyme sprigs and serve with chips.
• Make ahead: Up to 4 days, chilled.
• Note: Nutritional analysis is per 3-Tbsp. serving.

SLOW-COOKER CARAMELIZED ONION DIP

Steps:

• Spray 5-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. Mix onions, 2 tablespoons melted butter, the salt and pepper in slow cooker. Cover; cook on Low heat setting 10 to 12 hours or until onions are very tender and browned.
• Drain mixture, and return onions to slow cooker. Discard liquid. Stir cream cheese and soy sauce into onion mixture in slow cooker.
• Cover; cook on Low heat setting 15 minutes. Stir in mayonnaise; top with parsley and thyme. Serve with toasts.
• At least 2 hours before serving, make the toasts. Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 15x10x1-inch pan with cooking spray. Bake French bread loaves 24 to 26 minutes or until browned. Cool completely, at least 30 minutes. Cut each loaf into 1/2-inch slices. Brush slices on both sides, using 4 tablespoons melted butter. Bake half of the slices at a time on pan 15 to 20 minutes, turning once, until deep golden brown and crispy.

SWEET ONION DIP

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat oil over medium. Add onions; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool to room temperature.
• In a medium bowl, combine onions, sour cream, cream cheese, vinegar, and chives; season with salt and pepper. Chill dip until slightly thickened, about 1 hour; or cover and refrigerate up to 2 days. Serve with chips.

CARAMELIZED ONION DIP WITH FRIZZLED LEEKS

Steps:

• Put the onions in a large skillet over medium heat. Cover and cook, stirring infrequently, until the onions are dry and almost sticking to the pan, about 20 minutes. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the oil and a large pinch of salt and turn the heat down to medium-low. Cook, stirring occasionally and adding just enough additional oil to keep them from sticking without getting greasy. The onions are ready when they're dark, sweet and jammy, 40 minutes to 1 hour later.
• Sprinkle with black pepper, stir in the thyme and remove the onions from the heat. When they're cool, fold them into the yogurt and stir in the lemon juice. Taste and adjust the seasoning, then transfer the mixture to a serving bowl. (At this point, you can cover the dip with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 days.)
• Wipe or wash out the skillet and put it over medium-high heat. When it's hot, add the remaining 4 tablespoons oil. A few seconds later, add half the leeks, turn the heat up to high and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Use a spatula to turn the leeks over as they cook. Be careful: they will go from not-browned to burnt pretty quickly, and you want to catch them in between those stages, when they're browned and crisp. Transfer the leeks to paper towels to drain and repeat with the remaining leeks, adding more oil to the pan if necessary to keep them from sticking.
• Garnish the onion dip with the crisp leeks and serve immediately with crudités or crackers.
