Onion Cheese Dip
I had this at a New Year's party and it was so good I had to get the recipe to share here. Can easily be divided into smaller amounts, frozen and re-heated in the oven or microwave. Fresh chopped onion can be substituted for the frozen and it is also good with chopped artichoke hearts added. Serve with crackers or melba toast.

Tips and Variations:
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the mixture.
- Experiment with different types of cheese for unique flavor profiles. Gruyere, cheddar, or even a blend would work well.
- Add some fresh herbs, like chives or parsley, for an extra layer of flavor and visual appeal.
- If you don't have an oven-proof baking dish, you can bake the dip in a regular dish and then transfer it to a serving dish.
- For a smoother texture, you can briefly blend the ingredients before baking, though a slightly chunkier texture is also appealing.
