Here’s a ridiculously addictive dip that’s part of my eternal, less-calorie, more-protein, healthy-eating campaign. Between you and me, it really just means I disguise healthy ingredients as seemingly indulgent dips, dressings, deli salads, casseroles…anything and everything, actually. So, allow me to introduce one of my all-time-fav snacks/appetizers. It’s my super-easy, creamy, Guiltless French Onion Dip.
Guiltless French Onion Dip
This here…oh dear…there are SO many things to love about this dip!
- Made with mostly Nonfat Greek yogurt, so you’re getting a bunch of added protein (and way less calories) than a mayo or sour cream-based dip.
- Takes 5 minutes to whip this up guys…only 5 minutes…then ya chill!
- You’re in complete control of your ingredients – this means you avoid unnecessary, added sugars, salt, and MSG that you might find in a pre-packaged dip.
- It’s vegetarian-friendly!
- Besides the yogurt and mayo, the other ingredients are probably in your pantry.
- It’s good on veggies, chips, sandwiches…you name it!
Here are the ingredients you’ll need for this recipe
- Nonfat Greek yogurt
- Mayonnaise (optional)
- Dried onion flakes
- Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Here are the tools you’ll find handy
- small mixing bowl

This guiltless dip recipe has been tried and tested on many, many occasions with multiple people…even kids! The results?…BOOM, always a hit!

Cheers to the dip you’ll want to make during any season for every occasion…and always to our health!
