Recipe: Lowered-Sodium Onion Dip

One of my facebook Friends recently requested a vegetable dip recipe. Personally, my favorite veggie dip is hummus, but my husband is fond of onion dip, made with dehydrated soup mix. I like the flavor of onion dip, but it's a high-sodium snack option: One cup of onion dip contains about 2,400 milligrams of sodium from the soup mix alone. Before the Super Bowl earlier this year, I experimented with a lowered-sodium version of onion dip. I use fat-free Greek yogurt because it's a good source of protein, which benefits my husband's blood sugar levels, but you can use fat-free or low-fat sour cream instead.
