Lately, I’ve been so disappointed in the Food Network – one boring reality show after another and each of them starring the bleached pointy hair fellow or the steroidal one. I have no ill will toward these guys – everyone needs a job – but I miss real cooking shows. I was thrilled to see a commercial for a new show – Heartland Table with Amy Thielen.
I watched the first show and was hooked – loved Amy, her home, her garden — her kitchen. My first thought was to check Amazon and see if she had a cookbook out – and I was thrilled when I completed my order of her book, The New Midwestern Table.
After looking through the book – I knew I wanted to cook my way through the book and have some type of group on Facebook to organize it all. I messaged Amy and she was thrilled with the prospect (not as thrilled as I was). Three weeks later and we have 164 members that are cooking through her wonderful book.
The first recipe I chose for our group to make was the Fried Onion Dip.
My son is home all week for Fall Break here in Colorado and we made the dip today. Well, I made it and he kept asking “what smells so good???”
This will swear you off the powdered stuff — Lipton onion soup mix that is — forever.
I thought I would have to end up sharing with my neighbor because my husband does not eat anything with onions – but Andrew and I finished off half of this incredible dip.
Come join us on Facebook. We are cooking two recipes a month – try something new!
I do love me a good onion dip! Mmm….
I love all things onion so I can’t wait to make this dip. So exciting to be cooking through Amy’s book with you Jenny! Thanks so much for all your hard work in organizing it. Now, pass me that dip would you???
That is the best onion dip I have ever had. Ditto what Renee said.
Amazeballs. I love this dip. Amen.
