Ingredients:

• 4 Tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 cup Ellenos Plain Unsweetened yogurt
• 3-4 onions, chopped
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• serve with: baby carrots, potato chips, or other dippable veggies & snacks.

Instructions:

1. Caramelize the onions:

   • Heat a skillet over medium heat and add butter to melt.

   • Stir in the onions and add salt and pepper. 

   • Cook for 5 minutes, until the onions start to soften.

   • Turn heat down to low and cook, stirring often, until the onions are golden brown and sticky. This may take as long as 60 minutes , but it's essential you do not rush this step. Stir the onions often to prevent burning. If they get dry and start to crisp, add a little liquid (a splash of water or wine) to prevent burning.

   • Let the onions cool. Since they're so time-consuming, it can be helpful to caramelize the onions up to 48 hours before you make the dip.
     
     
2. Combine the Ellenos yogurt, caramelized onion, spices, and Worcestershire sauce in a small mixing bowl.
3. Mix until completely uniform. Adjust spices to personal preference, as necessary.
4. Garnish with fresh parsley or chopped green onions, as desired.
5. Chill at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld.
6. Serve with your favorite potato chips.
7. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
