Baked Onion Cheese Dip
This cheddar-Vidalia dip gets a nice kick from an added cup of pepper Jack cheese. It's fun to serve with an assortment of crackers and breadsticks. —Bonnie Hawkins, Elkhorn, Wisconsin

There's a note at the end of this recipe that states Reduced Fat or Fat Free Mayonnaise does not work in this recipe..???? Did you mean Reduced Fat or Fat Free Cream Cheese? There is no mayonnaise in this recipe unless it was omitted by accident.
I could eat this as a meal I loved it that much! I did cut up bread into squares with a little butter and baked them for a few minutes to use with the dip. Yum!
This is a very tasty dip. I was pleasantly surprised at how wonderful the onions tasted. I agree with the other reviewers that its much better once it has cooled. I sprinkled the top with some chili powder just before serving. The recipe is easy to reduce. I made just 1/2 and it was more than ample enough for 4 adults.I will be trying this one again with other cheeses.Janie
I added minced garlic. It was super yummy!
One thing I really liked about this has already been mentioned...it is even good when it cools down. That makes it a great recipe to take OR make when you need a snack or appetizer.
Made this today and it was very well received! I only got to sample a couple of bites but it was delicious! Great blend of spice with the pepper jack and cheddar! I'll be making this again!
Was great for appetizers warm. The next day cold out of the fridge was even better! YUMMY!
