                        ingredients
                        
- 1 large sweet onion, sliced (about 2 cups)
 
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
 
- 1/4 tsp fresh thyme (or a pinch of dried)
 
- 6 oz chorizo or sausage, casing removed and roughly chopped or crumbled
 
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
 
- 1/4 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
 
- 1/3 cup mozzarella cheese
 
- Kosher salt
 
- 1/4 cup chopped scallions or green onions
 
                     
                    
                        directions
                        
- Melt butter in a 12-inch cast iron skillet or saute pan over medium heat and add the onions and thyme.  Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of salt over the onions and reduce the heat to medium-low.  Cook the onions, stirring occasionally until they are tender and reach a deep golden color, about 25 to 30 minutes.  Add the chorizo to the pan and allow the chorizo to warm through with the onions, about 5 minutes.
 
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.  Transfer the onions and chorizo to a large bowl and with a rubber spatula, stir in the cream cheese, yogurt and mozzarella cheese until well-combined.  Season with salt to taste.  Scoop the mixture into a 2 quart baking dish and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the edges are bubbly and the top starts to brown a little.  Garnish with scallions.  Serve with Fritos, tortilla chips, or crusty bread
