    Vegan Sour Cream & Onion Dip

    Why I love this Vegan Sour Cream & Onion Dip

    • Dietary needs - this dish is vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, oil-free, and refined sugar free
    • Vegan version of a classic - this dip is just like regular sour cream and onion dip, but without the dairy!
    • High-protein - just because we skipped the dairy doesn't mean this recipe doesn't have protein! With a greek-style vegan yogurt, you still get the protein benefits without any of the bad stuff that comes with dairy
    • Seriously only takes 5 minutes - all you have to do is measure and mix

    Ingredient Notes & Substitutions

    • Vegan Greek-Style Yogurt: I used Kite Hill's plant-based greek-style yogurt. Their protein yogurt would also work well. You can use any non-dairy yogurt you'd like - ideally one that has a thicker texture
    • Maple Syrup: Since we aren't actually caramelizing any onions in this recipe, the maple syrup makes up for the sweetness that caramelized onions would provide. You can also use date syrup for a completely fruit-sweetened recipe
    • Dried Minced Onion: you can find this in the spice aisle if you don't own some already. Dried minced onion gives the dip some texture as well as onion flavor
    • Onion Powder: for more onion flavor.
    • Garlic Powder: this gives some garlic flavor as well as more of that caramel flavor we're going for
    • Fresh or Dried Parsley: either fresh chopped parsley or dried parsley will work!
    • Salt & Pepper
