While visiting a craft show last weekend a spotted a booth selling dry mixes to make your own dips.  I bought a pack to support someone local, but I knew this was probably something that I could make it home.  After researching a ton of recipes online I found this one on Budget101 for Cheese & Onion Dip that looked tasty and easy.  A big plus is that I had all the ingredients at home.  It cost about 60 cents to make compared to the $3 for a can of dip at the store, so making your own is a no brainer.

Onion Cheese Dip Mix

Ingredients

1 Tbsp. instant minced onion
1 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp. instant beef bouillon granules
1/4 tsp. garlic salt

*If not using right away you can store in a small zip loc baggie

To Use

1 cup sour cream
1 pkg, onion cheese dip mix (recipe above)
Blend Well, chill for an hour prior to serving.

**The dip turned out super tasty, but was a little on the salty side.  I adjusted the amount of bouillon granules in the recipe above so it should turn out just right**
