Caramelized Onion White Bean Dip

  • 2 c. cooked and drained white beans- such as navy, romano, or white kidney
  • 2 large white onions
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil -divided
  • 1 tsp. sea salt- divided
  • 1 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp. onion powder

Thinly slice your onions and add them, 1 Tbsp. olive oil and 1/2 tsp. sea salt to a medium size skillet and put on very low heat. Cover and let your onions sweat and caramelize; this will take a good 30 minutes. Slow cooking the onions like this makes them deliciously sweet.

When your onions are done, reserve 2 Tbsp. of caramelized onions for a topping. Add the rest of your onions, including the cooking liquid to you food processor or blender with all your other ingredients. Blend until smooth. Pour into a dish and top with reserved onions.

Serve with cut up veggies, crackers or chips. Store remaining dip in the fridge, covered for up to 3 days. This dip freezes well.
