- 1 teaspoon canola oil
- 3 cup roughly chopped or sliced onions
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- 3 tablespoon light tub-style cream cheese
- 3 tablespoon light mayonnaise
- 1 cup light sour cream
- 1 teaspoon dried minced onion
- 3/4 teaspoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Heat the oil in a medium-sized, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the onions, reduce the heat to medium, cover, and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. (To quick-start your onions, cook them in the microwave for 5 minutes first.)
- Stir in the brown sugar and continue to cook for 7-10 more minutes, stirring periodically, until the onions are deep golden brown. Remove from the heat.
- In a medium-sized bowl, mix the cream cheese and mayonnaise. Add the sour cream and then the remaining ingredients, including the warm caramelized onions.
- Serve immediately, or place the dip into a serving dish, cover, and put in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to meld flavors and serve as a cool dip.
