I’ve tried making onion dip with fat-free sour cream but just couldn’t stomach it. The texture is just so off. On occasion I’d indulge by using light sour cream, but then I felt I had to be mindful of how much dip I was eating. Using a thick Greek yogurt, like Fage, I can finally eat as much dip as I want. Though it doesn’t taste exactly like full-fat sour cream, it does provide the same texture and a great (though different) flavor. Please note that depending on the brand of soup mix you use, the perfect amount will vary slightly. I’d start with 2 teaspoons and then continue adding, tasting as you do, until it suits your tastes. You can look for all-natural or organic onion soup mixes. I find the flavors differ significantly among brands, so try numerous brands if you don’t love the first you try.
