This makes 3 cups. It tastes and looks really nice served in a fancy hollowed out round of sour dough bread, but so does serving it from an empty margarine container with tortilla chips like I do. Make this at least 4 hours ahead to allow for the onion flavor to be absorbed throughout.

Try making this recipe into a spread by changing the quantities of sour cream and mayo to 1 cup sour cream and 1/2 cup mayo and then adding 8oz. softened cream cheese first. Cream together cream cheese with soup mix before adding remaining ingredients.
