Creamy Onion Dip

Randy's Eat Shop

Here is a real-life scenario:

Let’s say that it is late-afternoon on a Saturday. The sun is warm. The sky is blue. You’ve worked hard around the house and yard this day and now you’re going to reward yourself with a cold beer on the patio. You grab your beer from the fridge and head outside but then you STOP. You think, “Wouldn’t it be great to have a snack with my cold beer on the patio?” YES! You check the pantry and, in fact, there is a bag of unopened potato chips just waiting for you. But what about a dip? A creamy onion dip? 


Don’t even think about hoping in the car and running down to the store because you are ready to relax on the patio RIGHT NOW! But, with Randy’s Eat Shop Creamy Onion Dip you’ll be on the patio in about 10 minutes with cold beer, crinkle potato chips (ridges provide more structure to the chips making them better for dipping), and creamy onion dip that YOU MADE from scratch (no onion soup mix required).

Here’s the recipe:

Creamy Onion Dip

  • 1/4 cup of dried onions crushed (in a mortar and pestle if you have one)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 1/3 cup sour cream

Add all ingredients in a bowl and mix with a whisk or hand mixer. Serve immediately or chill in refrigerator for later.

Here’s what mine looked like the last time I whipped this dip together in less than 10 minutes:

And yes, I ate the entire batch on the patio with two cold beers. I did not feel guilty. And I was very happy.

Randy Beckwith here. I’m thankfully retired. But, my career included graphic designer, copy writer and marketing professional. Now I live with my wife in Roanoke, Virginia enjoying time relaxing on our patio that was a necessary addition to our home due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I love to cook fun, simple but tasty food. When enjoying an adult beverage on the patio it’s usually a vodka martini. And I do simple DIY projects to enhance our home and outdoors. We’ve had great fun building an outdoor living space on a “reserved” budget and want to share our experience with anyone who wants the same without breaking the bank. I hope you enjoy reading our blog. And remember, every day is Friday on the patio!
