Cheesy Dip

If you ever find yourself in need of a quick appetizer to take to a gathering or if you find yourself hungry for something a little more substantial to go with the chips you are eating while watching your favorite TV shows, give this dip a try.  I was a bit skeptical at first due to onions being one of the 4 ingredients, but I figured with the addition of the cheeses all married in real mayonnaise, it was worth a shot.  I wasn't prepared to like it so much or to have everyone else in this house under the age of 20 like it either! That's actually a good thing, though, since the dip is rather rich and a bit addictive so sharing the dip shares the calories too.☺

Ingredients

4 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 small Vidalia or other sweet yellow onions, finely diced
3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup real mayonnaise

Directions

In large bowl, mix cream cheese, diced onion, cheddar cheese, and mayonnaise. Spoon into greased baking dish. Bake at 375°F for 25-30 minutes or until bubbly and lightly browned on top. Serve with corn chips, vegetables or crackers.
