Instructions

Heat Oil: In a sauté pan, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil over low heat to gently warm the oil without burning it.
Caramelize Onions: Add sliced onions and minced garlic to the pan. Cook slowly for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions turn golden brown and develop a sweet flavor.
Cool Onions: Remove the pan from heat and allow the caramelized onions and garlic to cool for 5-10 minutes to avoid curdling the yogurt in the next step.
Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the cooled onions and garlic with 1 cup of non-fat Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon salt, 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, 1 tablespoon dried parsley, and 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder. Mix thoroughly until well blended.
Serve & Enjoy: Serve the onion dip immediately with tortilla chips, pita bread, or fresh vegetables as a healthy snack or appetizer.

Notes

You can substitute olive oil with avocado oil, butter, or ghee depending on your preference.
Yellow or red onions work best for a balanced sweetness when caramelized.
Use coconut aminos or low sodium soy sauce as a substitution for Worcestershire sauce for a gluten-free or soy-free option.
If using fresh garlic, you can omit the garlic powder.
This dip can be refrigerated for up to 3 days; stir well before serving.
