Super Bowl LII
Will you root for the Patriots or the Eagles?
As for me, I’m just proud of myself that I even know who’s playing.
🙂
While some will shell out upwards of $3000 to attend the Super Bowl this year, most will seek out their favorite sports bar to watch the spectacle. Â Still others will attend Super Bowl parties where tables will be overloaded with hot wings, Super Bowl Sandwiches, pizza, BBQ, nachos, queso dip, and adult beverages.
Onion dip—homemade
As for us, we like to keep it low key.  We relish our weekends and savor the quietude after hectic and busy work weeks. We’ll be plopped in front of the TV with some favorite appetizers.
This dip is one of our favorites for any special event that requires chips and dip to be complete.
Spicy Onion Dip
Crank up the heat here with your favorite hot sauce.
Ingredients
- 2 T. olive oil
- 3/4 c. diced onions
- 3 dashes Sriracha (or favorite hot sauce)
- 1 dash Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 t. fine sea salt
- 3/4 c. lite sour cream
- 1/3 c. olive-oil mayonnaise
- 1/8 t. garlic powder
- 1/8 t. white pepper
- 1/8 t. cayenne pepper
- additional salt to taste
Instructions
- In a saute pan over medium heat add oil, heat and add onions and salt. Cook the onions until they are caramelized, about 20 minutes. Right before onions are done, add the sriracha and Worcestershire and stir to mix in. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
- Mix the rest of the ingredients with a whisk until smooth. Add the cooled onions.
- Refrigerate and stir again before serving. Best if made the night before.
I found inspiration for this dip from an Alton Brown recipe and a Trisha Yearwood recipe.
The caramelized onions give this a hint of sweetness along with the spiciness of the Sriracha and the cayenne. Â It’s a good combo.
Wow, you’ve avoided the bitter off-taste of Onion Soup Mix! But kept the sour cream and onion. As a dedicated no-sports fan, I pay no attention to the Superbowl, so I won’t be eating wings, dips, or guac next Sunday. Have fun!

I only watch for the commercials. 🙂
Looks very yummy! I would like mine with a bit of hot sauce :-))
The hotter the better.
Mmmm… I love onion dip and hot sauce so your singing my tune. The dip looks delicious.
“As for me, I’m just proud of myself that I even know who’s playing” – Ha! I didn’t know who was playing until now. Aren’t the Patriots almost always playing in the Super Bowl?
I will probably go for the Eagles. You know because of the movie?
I only know because I looked it up to confirm before posting. 🙂
I need different flavours dips to dunk my savouries and veg into and this onion dip sounds good to me.
Veggies would rock this dip.
I like that you added a little spice to your dip, it sounds right up my alley. 🙂
The spicier the better!
We have the same plans as you. I’m loving the sound of your spicy onion dip—I’m saving it to serve at book club!
I’ve actually been sick all week so staying home sounds even better.
Enjoy your Super Bowl Sunday! We’ll be watching the game and celebrating a birthday. Fun day. This is a great dip to take to the party. Thanks!
Hope it’s a happy one! Have fun.
Vegas’ birthday is the day before the Super Bowl… so we’re basically doing nothing. I love that you posted this though – I need to go ahead and plan food at least for us since I’m going to be busy throwing a birthday celebration before the big day!
Ha! Enjoy both celebrations, the party and the day after!
