Ingredients

  • 1 cup sour cream (or plain Greek yogurt*)

  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • ¼ cup chopped green onions divided

Instructions

  • Mix. In a medium bowl, stir together the sour cream, mayonnaise, French onion soup mix, onion powder, minced garlic, and half of the green onion together until smooth and creamy.

Notes

Storage: Transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Make ahead: Leave off the garnish and chill for up to 24 hours before you need it. Garnish with green onions and serve. 
*With Greek yogurt: Replace the sour cream with a good quality sour cream. I recommend using a 4-5% type, but 0% will work well too. Aim for brands with a thick consistency.
