Homemade French Onion Dip Recipe – Healthy

This homemade french onion dip recipe is made with creamy greek yogurt for a healthier version of this classic dip that quickly disappears every time it’s made! It uses homemade seasoning so you’ll be able to pronounce all the ingredients and feel good about eating it! 

Some people have a big sweet tooth, but I crave salty snacks (umm, hi there, popcorn addiction). I’m completely helpless around a bowl (or…a container) of french onion dip and a bag of salty, greasy, potato chips. I can’t keep these things in my house because I have no self-control around them.

When multiple people requested that I create a homemade onion soup mix recipe and this homemade french onion dip, I knew I had to get right on it! Well, truthfully it took me months (sorry for making you wait, Allison!).

I knew that I’d make it healthier than the stuff you buy at the store…as I tend to do! My go-to is always my dill vegetable dip made with yogurt, but this homemade french onion dip is quickly becoming a new favorite. The problem is, I still want to eat a ton of chips with it. But it’s healthier…so it’s all good…right? Right?

The base is mostly plain Greek yogurt, but I also like to add in some mayo to smooth out the flavors and reduce the tanginess of the dip. The only other thing in the dip besides the yogurt and the mayonnaise is a couple of tablespoons of my homemade onion soup mix. It takes only about five minutes to make…but it’s best if you let it sit in the fridge for a couple hours to let the flavors meld together.

Make this for a poolside snack, for a party, for just because it’s that darn good. You guys are going to adore this one!

How Long Is Homemade French Onion Dip Good For?

This homemade french onion dip will keep in your fridge in a sealed container for about the same amount of time as your yogurt. When you’re making this, check the date on your yogurt and use that as a guide for when to toss this out as well.

Can I Make this French Onion Dip Without Mayo?

You can absolutely make this french onion dip without mayonnaise! I like the way it smooths and mellows out the flavor, but you can definitely use all yogurt instead of the mix of yogurt and mayonnaise that I used in this recipe.

Can I use more Caramelized Onions?

You can definitely add more caramelized onions to the mixture and stir them into this dip. They’ll add so much amazing flavor! I don’t think there’s such as too many caramelized onions, am I right? They’re absolutely irresistible!
