You’ve probably had French onion dip, but I’m willing to bet you’ve never had it like this before! This healthy French onion dip takes all the traditional tastes and textures and amplifies them even further with the use of sweet, homemade caramelized onions.

Healthy French Onion Dip Ingredients and Notes 

French onion dip ingredients on a pan with labels.
  • Greek yogurt - I use this in place of mayonnaise for the base of the dip. For the best results, use plain, full-fat yogurt. Or, choose your favorite dairy-free alternative. 
  • Worcestershire sauce - This adds extra depth and a subtly smokey taste. If needed, you can substitute coconut aminos or soy sauce. 
  • Honey - This is optional but highly recommended if you don’t use it with the onions for a subtle sweet taste that balances some of the tang. 
  • Seasonings - Sea salt, garlic powder, and black pepper add extra depth and a savory taste. 
  • Caramelized onions - The star of the show! Caramelized onions add lots of depth and a sweet, savory, pungent flavor that takes this healthy French onion dip over the top.
