Side: Baked Sweet Onion Dip

 

http://thepioneerwoman.com/tasty-kitchen/recipes/appetizers-and-snacks/baked-sweet-onion-dip/

• 8 ounces, weight Cream Cheese (Very Softened)
• 1 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 cup Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese
• 1 cup Minced Sweet Onion
• 1 Tablespoon Fresh Ground Black Pepper
• Crusty Bread, Crackers

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, place softened cream cheese. The cream cheese must be very, very, soft (like spreadable butter) to allow all ingredients to blend evenly together. If your cream cheese needs to soften more, place in the microwave for a few seconds.
2. Add mayo, Parmesan cheese, onions and fresh cracked black pepper to soft cream cheese till everything is mixed thoroughly.
3. Place mixture in ramekins or any oven-safe dishes. Bake slowly, for about 30-45 minutes for all ingredients to cook together. When the top crust is brown, almost burnt-looking, then the dip is ready. The darker brown the crust of the dip becomes, the better the flavors are cooked.
4. Serve with your favorite bread and crackers.
