Growing up, whenever my parents had company, they would make onion dip.  They always used a soup package mix – and, don’t get me wrong, it’s delicious in its own right, but I prefer this homemade version.  The Bacon & Caramelized Onion Topping adds a subtle salty and sweet flavor that you just don’t get from the packaged stuff.  When I’m feeling extra bougie, I’ll sprinkle some shredded mozzarella on top and throw it under the broiler until it’s nice and crispy.
