PAULA DEEN'S CARAMELIZED VIDALIA ONION AND BLUE CHEESE HOT DIP

This is a quick and easy dip to make that everyone seems to love. I used panko bread crumbs because that is what I had in my pantry. I also found that you needed to cut the onion pieces into smaller strips (I took the onion and cut it in half and then half again). I also used Clemson Blue Cheese.

Serve the dip with a variety of dippers, such as potato chips, crackers, vegetable crudités, or bread.
