Ingredients
Dip Ingredients
- 1 cup sour cream

- ⅛ tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh chives
- 1 tsp Better Than Bouillon beef paste (not a cube)
For Serving

Instructions
- Mix the ingredients: Place the sour cream in a small bowl. Add the dried onion flakes, onion powder, garlic powder, chopped fresh chives, and the beef bouillon paste. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are completely blended together. Taste the dip and adjust seasonings if needed to suit your preference.
- Chill the dip: Although the dip can be enjoyed immediately, it is best to refrigerate it for at least 1 hour. This chilling time allows the flavors to meld together and softens the dried onion flakes for a better texture and enhanced taste.
- Serve: Once chilled, serve the French onion dip with wavy potato chips and fresh carrot and celery sticks for dipping.
