caramelized shallots and blue cheese dip
I love a good dip! This can be made 2 days ahead of time and kept refrigerated.
Blue Ribbon Recipe
This rich and creamy caramelized shallots and blue cheese dip is an elevated French onion dip. Caramelizing shallots adds nice texture and a deep, robust onion flavor to the dip. The blue cheese is surprisingly subtle. The mayonnaise, sour cream, and shallots help to mellow its tangy flavor. Serve with fresh veggies and crackers or a ridged potato chip. Even non-blue cheese lovers will enjoy this easy appetizer.
