1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 cups sour cream
3/4 cup Miracle Whip
1 1/2 cups onions, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
1/3 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp pepper

In a small saucepan, melt butter in olive oil and brown the onions with a pinch of salt. As the onions begin to take on color, add the garlic, being careful not to brown the garlic. Remove onions from heat and allow to cool.

In a small bowl, stir together remaining ingredients and add the cooled onions.

Before serving, adjust seasonings to taste.

Serve garnished with several rings of red onions or curled green onions, and sprigs of fresh parsley or cilantro with a sprinkles of paprika over top.

To make curled green onions, slice a few scallions lengthwise, remove the green stalk, and plunge them into ice water just before serving.
